I attempted to change my time zone with `tzsetup /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles` and discovered that /var/db/zonein= fo did not update. It updates correctly when I run the similar command `tzsetup -s America/Los_Angeles`, and when I select my timezone from the menu with `tzsetup`. Reproduction steps: Give the system a known timezone. I'll use "America/Santiago". # tzsetup -s America/Santiago # cat /var/db/zoneinfo America/Santiago # date +%Z CLT Pick a new timezone, such as "America/Los_Angeles". # tzsetup /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles # press enter at both pro= mpts Observe that /var/db/zoneinfo was not updated. # cat /var/db/zoneinfo America/Santiago Observe that the timezone did in fact change. # date +%Z PDT --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
