Description SpanKY gentoo-dev 2006-12-22 20:51:20 UTC 
this is more of a heads up ... next stable versions of baselayout will have a TIMEZONE variable in /etc/conf.d/clock so that the /etc/localtime file can be updated automatically when emerging the relevant system packages

since you have to pick the timezone already in the installer, it should be so kind as to record that value in the installed /etc/conf.d/clock file
