Package: tzdata Version: 2023c-8 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: t...@mirbsd.de
Please bring back at the *very* least the top-level UTC symlink, as TZ=UTC is used in *so* many places to get UTC it’s not funny. A second candidate, although less used recently, is the top-level GMT symlink. These are bound to be hardcoded in so many places, and Etc/UTC is *not* a substitute, nor is running that without the files (in some corner cases). -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-23-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages tzdata depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.82 tzdata recommends no packages. tzdata suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * tzdata/Zones/Etc: UTC * tzdata/Areas: Europe tzdata/Zones/Antarctica: tzdata/Zones/Arctic: tzdata/Zones/Australia: tzdata/Zones/US: tzdata/Zones/Pacific: tzdata/Zones/America: tzdata/Zones/Asia: * tzdata/Zones/Europe: Berlin tzdata/Zones/SystemV: tzdata/Zones/Africa: tzdata/Zones/Atlantic: tzdata/Zones/Indian:
