Package: util-linux
Version: 2.12r-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

My hardware clock is set to localtime, not to GMT. And everything worked OK
until a few days ago. 
Yesterday I noted that my system clock was an hour fast. I set it to a
valid value, rebooted the system, and (surprise!) the problem renewed.

After some investigation I found that hwclock is now run before /usr 
is mounted, so it assumes that the local time zone is UTC (because
/etc/localtime was a dangling symlink on that time).

To make it more clear, here's an example from my system.
The S22hwclock.sh script sets the date to:
        Sun Dec 11 14:48:47 UTC 2005

But when the S35mountall.sh is run, the date is:
        Sun Dec 11 15:48:48 CET 2005


Best Regards,
robert
