It seems we have a difference in our understanding of what the base container image should be. You have accurately stated the container is "the minimum possible to allow zypper to operate". I understood the base container to be "the minimal system in which I can deploy an application into". Having had experience with other distro container bases which contain timezone data, this was my assumption. So I would still propose that timezone be included. Of course, the "just one more thing" trap should be avoided, but timezone is universally helpful to deployments (and appears to be the standard for other distro containers). If you feel that the role should only be to provide zypper support, then feel free to close this issue. But it may be good to "document" the intent of the container's configuration somewhere. Alternately, please consider that it's counter intuitive as a design in my view, and that the minimal container should contain a minimal supportive application platform IE zypper + key libraries.
