Thanks, yes, it did. Any idea why zdump is root-only? What's 'special' about knowing what timezone I'm in?
That's an openSUSE thing, either permissions or apparmour. On all other distros I check it is 0755.
It has 755
$ ls -l /usr/sbin/zdump -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 47616 Aug 25 13:55 /usr/sbin/zdump
The point is that it is installed in /usr/sbin instead of /usr/bin. Hence, it is not found in a standard user's PATH. No idea why.
My user finds it:
cer@Telcontar:~> which zdump /usr/sbin/zdump cer@Telcontar:~> zdump
All that tells us is that you have set your user to have a non-standard path :)
