Current evaluation

Merged #2935 in commit 1fdd243c1, removing the build-provider tzdata workaround after commit 97fdf64 added --preserve-env.

Resolution: closed resolved

Reason: PR #2935 was merged as commit 1fdd243c1. It removed the incorrect workaround because commit 97fdf64b731e23f02898e7921e838a2fc80a6c5d had fixed environment propagation with --preserve-env.

Issue body

This workaround was put in place, but it is the wrong fix.
