Severity: minor

tzconfig is one of the rare things that interferes with doing a
non-interactive upgrade. I would much prefer it to use debconf
to configure the timezone, configure it once at installation,
and then never ask me again.

I understand that this may be difficult in the early stages of
installation, and that special handling might be necessary. Maybe you
could get round that by having a special "default" timezone, and
prompting the user to change it iff the current timezone is default.
