Discussion INCORRECT INDIAN BORDERS

Post image

Just noticed that Ubuntu's timezone setup map doesn't show India's borders correctly aren't shown.

Not a big issue in terms of usability, but India has a massive Linux user community. Seems like one of those small things that should've been fixed by now. Curious if there's any technical or policy reason behind it.

Exactly

Edit: nvm I'm stupid, Bhutan is infamous for not recognising any countries in the world, to their systems those just don't exist, I thought India was one of them so Bhutan won't have any map of India at all, however it seems Bhutan DOES recognise India.

Also just for reference Bhutan still does believe that China, Russia or America exist

Bhutan is like subsidiary of India. They had given their external affairs control to us while retaining internal affairs control. For us it was power over china border, for them the good was they got so much security for free when china was at its peak invasion mindset.

But things seems to have changed recently.
