No doubt some of the delay is due to compatibility issues with other
packages
that consume timezone data. Upstream changed the data format:
=====
$ rpm -q --changelog tzdata-2018e-1.fc*.noarch
* Wed May 16 2018 [tzdata-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] - 2018e-1
- Rebase to tzdata-2018e
- North Korea changed from UTC+8:30 to UTC+9 on May 5, 2018.
- In this update, the upstream project now defaults to using
the "vanguard" data implementation which includes negative DST
offsets.
However, we are continuing to provide the "rearguard" format
for data which does not use negative DST offsets to provide
better compatibility with existing tools. We intend to transition
to the "vanguard" data implementation in the future.

Fedora had already switched to the new format for F29:

That bug is asking for 2018g - we already have 2018e where
the format changed.
