reopen 342887
thanks

Quoting /usr/share/doc/util-linux/changelog.Debian.gz:

,----
|   * drop hwclockfirst.sh, and put hwclock.sh back at 50.  See #50572 and
|     Closes: #342887
`----

Ahem, shouldn't hwclock.sh be run as early as possible, not as late as
possible?!  I have UTC=no and several files modified by the boot
scripts had their timestamps in the future after booting :-(

If I understand the lengthy logs for #342887 correctly, the problem
was that /etc/localtime might not be readable before /usr was
mounted.  However, this was fixed in libc6 2.3.6-6, /etc/localtime
should now always be a real file, not a symlink (see #346342).

So why can't hwclock.sh run earlier (not before checkroot.sh, of
course)?  I gave it priority 11, AFICS this works fine.
