I think this may work, at least for all situations where 'UTC' is appendend (which I think will be the majority in practice, as e.g. nl_NL also shows UTC): hwclock --show --localtime | awk '{NF-=2; print $0}' | sed 's/ UTC//' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This will remove UTC if present and leave any other parts of the string alone. So it should not break any languages/locales (even if it does not fix the bug for them). This fix also is independent of where UTC is positioned in the string. AFAICT other values for timezone (like CEST) are not relevant as no timezone will be set if base-config is first run. It could even be argued that it would be a good thing to _show_ the current timezone if base-config is re-run after installation is completed and one _is_ selected. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
