Bug description:
  The currently published tzdata package for supported distributions
  contains a leap-seconds.list file that expires on 28 June 2017 and
  that was based on data available up through IERS Bulletin C52.

  IERS Bulletin C53 was published on Jan 9 2017 confirming that a June
  30 2017 would not be issued. I'm not sure what serves as the upstream
  data source for this package, but both IEFT and the eggertz tz repo
  have a leap-seconds.list file that incorporates Bulletin C53.

  https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list
  https://github.com/eggert/tz/blob/master/leap-seconds.list

  Would it be possible to get the package updated to include these more
  recent files? Some applications make use of the expiration data in
  this file and will raise exceptions to the user if it has gone stale.
