--- Begin Message ---Package: lxc Version: 0.9.0~alpha2-10 Severity: normal Tags: patch Dear Maintainer, There is the problem with tzdata package preseeding in debian (debconfig) template. My preseed.cfg file contains these selections among others: ###################################### tzdata tzdata/Areas select Europe tzdata tzdata/Zones/Europe select Kiev ###################################### I had create new container with this command: sudo lxc-create -n debian -t debian -- --preseed-file=/home/denys/Work/lxc/preseed.cfg But default time zone in the container was set to 'Etc/UTC'. debconf-show tzdata tzdata/Zones/Australia: tzdata/Zones/US: tzdata/Zones/Asia: * tzdata/Zones/Etc: UTC tzdata/Zones/SystemV: tzdata/Zones/Africa: tzdata/Zones/America: tzdata/Zones/Arctic: tzdata/Zones/Pacific: * tzdata/Areas: Etc tzdata/Zones/Antarctica: tzdata/Zones/Atlantic: * tzdata/Zones/Europe: Kiev tzdata/Zones/Indian: Previous selection was overriden. I have found that dpkg-reconfigure actually prefers settings in '/etc/timezone' over debconf answers. Removing the file and reconfiguring tzdata package again fixes timezone configuration. This patch implements my solution: --- lxc-debian~ 2013-02-09 09:12:29.000000000 +0200 +++ lxc-debian 2013-02-27 12:32:21.317699113 +0200 @@ -262,6 +262,7 @@ # FIXME: All packages of priority of essential need to be reconfigured to reflect choices from preseeding if grep -qs tzdata "${_PRESEED_FILE}" then +Chroot "${_ROOTFS}" "rm -f /etc/timezone" Chroot "${_ROOTFS}" "DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive DEBIAN_PRIORITY=criticial dpkg-reconfigure tzdata" fi For now debian template considers tzdata preseeding. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=uk_UA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=uk_UA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lxc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.49 ii libapparmor1 2.7.103-4 ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libcap2 1:2.22-1.2 ii multiarch-support 2.13-38 Versions of packages lxc recommends: ii debootstrap 1.0.44 ii libcap2-bin 1:2.22-1.2 Versions of packages lxc suggests: pn debian-keyring <none> ii gpgv 1.4.12-7 pn live-debconfig-doc <none> ii rsync 3.0.9-4 -- debconf information excluded
