Feature changed by: Jiří Suchomel (jsuchome) Feature #312412, revision 8 Title: get rid of $HWCLOCK setting openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The $HWCLOCK variable in /etc/sysconfig/clock stores information that is redundant with /etc/adjtime's third line. There should be only one place to store that information. Programs reading /etc/sysconfig/clock: * warpclock from mkinitrd * /etc/init.d/boot.clock from aaa_base * yast2-country Relations: - 312407 (feature/id: 312407) Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: consistency Discussion: #1: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) (2012-07-13 14:56:27) done? #2: Dr. Werner Fink (wernerfink) (2012-09-20 15:39:17) (reply to #1) Done! #3: Lukas Ocilka (locilka) (2012-09-20 16:03:46) (reply to #2) Any changes required in, e.g. YaST? #4: Dr. Werner Fink (wernerfink) (2012-09-20 16:13:35) (reply to #3) AFAIK Jiří had also support for /etc/adjtime in yast2-country. + #5: Jiří Suchomel (jsuchome) (2012-09-20 16:42:16) (reply to #4) + Yes, it is there already.
