Base.@deprecate_binding ARTIFACT_DIR artifact_dir() false
# Why not simply use `const ARTIFACT_DIR = artifact"tzjdata"`?
# The problem is that `ARTIFACT_DIR` would be set to the artifact path at the time of precompilation.
# If the Julia depot is afterwards relocated,
# `ARTIFACT_DIR` will continue to point to the old no-longer-valid location.
# This occurs for example if TimeZones.jl is included inside a system image.
