Thank you for your detailed bug report.

pyinstaller-hooks-contrib does indeed include a test expecting to find the 
timezone described in the Continent/City (zoneinfo) syntax.  This is the 
generally recommended timezone format in Linux.

The package builds fine for me, on Salsa, and on the official buildds.

Can you point me to any official documentation that says one of the goals of 
the Debian project is to enforce that all software works with the deprecated 
GMT+12 format?  If so, I would be happy to take a look at this bug.

If there is no documentation saying this is a technical goal of the Debian 
project, then I will close this bug as wontfix.
