Package: util-linux
Version: 2.13.1-3
Severity: normal

Hello,

It appears that many people needs to pass --directisa to hwclock to make 
it work. Having to modify HWCLOCKPARS in /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh and in
hwclockfirst.sh is obviously not a nice solution (some people forget to
one or the other, and upgrades may be boring if one of the script is 
changed).

I strongly suggest adding /etc/default/hwclock and make it possible to
set HWCLOCKPARS there (or a directisa specific option) so that we don't
have to tweak the init scripts anymore.

Thanks,
Brice
