[gentoo-user] Re: new timezone data requires setting a symlink by hand
Why don't you just create /etc/timezone with Europe/Berlin as content? Huh? I always thought the proper place was the TIMEZONE variable in /etc/conf.d/clock: TIMEZONE=Europe/Berlin

So do we keep TIMEZONE in conf.d/clock or delete it?

So do we keep TIMEZONE in conf.d/clock or delete it? There is no /etc/conf.d/clock anymore in openrc/baselayout 2.0. The openrc file is called /etc/conf.d/hwclock, and there's no TIMEZONE variable in that file.

Now, I have deleted /etc/localtime /etc/conf.d/hwclock contains clock=local (which is recommended for a dual boot system with Windows) For /etc/timezone I have tried both Europe/Berlin and alternatively Europe/Berlin In both cases I get GMT instead of my local time here. try: # echo Eurpoe/Berlin /etc/timezone # emerge --config sys-libs/timezone-data NB: this will only need to be done this once, after that, an update of sys-libs/timezone-data will automatically update /etc/localtime - -- ABCD -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkiSSkMACgkQOypDUo0oQOrxIQCdG0Azwij5Pc76iy6kwXoa1Y95 QxAAoN4lgcncAliE5YQ8ZUYSPp7JCRbc =8uRF -END PGP SIGNATURE-
