This violates the FHS http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ ... what required is
simply the localtime which is given in
/etc/localtime
which is a copy and *never* a link to be able to have separate / and /usr
.. IMHO only the UTC reference /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC should be installed
also in /etc/ otherwise the loclatime is without reference and hwclock
has a problem if /usr is not available. The same holds true for setting
the clock within initrd before / is checked and mounted. Clearly the
timezone should the check first /etc/UTC and then /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC.
Maybe a /etc/zoneinfo/ with localtime and UTC is a better way but
/etc/localtime is more common. Or is it possible to include the UTC
reference into /etc/localtime, I'm not familiar with the internal format
of the compiled timezone files.
Petr? What do you think about this?
