I added this line in /etc/environment since a long time :
TZ="Europe/Paris"
It gives me satisfaction.
I can't seem to get this to work on 16.04. Which shell are you
using? Have you customized your /etc/bash.bashrc or /etc/profile to
source /etc/environment? I don't see any mention of /etc/environment
in the bash manpage, so it seems like this file isn't being used.
Also, how can I make this environment variable available to all
processes started by upstart (14.04) and systemd (16.04)? I am
concerned not only about interactive processes but also scripts (e.g.
started via cron) and services (started via upstart or systemd).
/etc/environment is not a script file; it's read by PAM. But I don't
think that happens early enough for services etc.
