Subject: bug#50830: [core-updates-frozen] glibc looks for $sysconfdir/etc/localtime rather than /etc/localtime
Date: Sun, 26 Sep 2021 22:46:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87czovkqtp.fsf@inria.fr> (raw)

As podiki reported on IRC, with ‘core-updates-frozen’
ca. 1fb75128a5202b406622da6272bc809c46d1f439, libc looks for
/gnu/store/…-glibc-2.33/etc/localtime instead of /etc/localtime.

Consequently, commands such as ‘date’ display UTC time regardless of the
configured timezone.

Fixing it will require a world rebuild that we could batch with Maxime’s
changes at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/50358>.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
