CRAN ERROR what are the plans?

[aphalo]

@vspinu Package 'lubridate' is triggering an ERROR in R devel (future R 4.5.0). Do you plan just to update the unit tests avoiding use of TZ arguments named "EET", "CET", etc., no longer supported by R or to do some other changes to continue supporting them? This is relevant to me as this ERROR is affecting indirectly packages that I maintain. I have changed the code and unit tests to avoid the ERROR in my packages, but I am considering how to update their documentation. Thanks!

Yes, I will fix it this week.

@aphalo Yeh, there is little we can do really. TZ argument is propagated to as.POSIXct everywhere, so it's updating tests only. In any case this is a welcomed change as those names are not proper time zones really.
