Just after the latest updates (kernel ...20 and not much more) I again booted up with actual GMT displayed as localtime. Seems like ntpdate was not run either. And probably related, I now had an IP address through dhcp (bug #33968).
The time was maybe set wrongly at shutdown earlier today (after a slew of updates). -- System clock reverts to GMT at boot https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/35423 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
