> Isn't the timezone supposed to be basically autodetected when the ISO
starts though?

I would like to think so, alas not always.

On occasion if I boot system & start a 'live' system and then start
install

- in most cases I'm told I'm with a 50-200km of home (commonly on the other 
side of my city of Melbourne; but my city at least)
- about 1 in 10 its Subiaco WA/AU (2727km/1694mile away) or importantly a 
different timezone (3 hours behind); my ISP's headquarters are at this location
- ~equal with Subiaco is New York NY/US (calamares default for unknown).

If location isn't detected, redshift results (reddening/no-change) may
NOT BE WHAT is expected even when its working 100%

These results happen with all Ubuntu and non-Ubuntu ISOs so we can't do
anything about it I suspect.

I'd hope not all users experience what I do, but I also suspect others
experience far worse than here in downunder.

The error message is what I saw bug report about though.

(I just booted the Lubuntu 24.04.1 ISO on box to my left; it correctly
detects me as in Melbourne AU as expected)
