localtime and
thought that should fix everything. I've just been trying the
command:
zdump -v localtime
If you do
strace zdump -v localtime
You will see that zdump try to open this file
/usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime and it will fail, therefore it will
give your some pre-programmed messages.
strace zdump -v /etc/localtime
It will use the /etc/localtime file and it will give you the
information you are looking for.
