Source: tz-converter
Severity: normal
tz-converter is currently referencing /etc/timezone without support
for /etc/localtime. /etc/timezone is a legacy interface that is
Debian specific. The cross-distro standard /etc/localtime (as a
symlink to the appropriate timezone file), so please switch your
package to /etc/localtime. tzsetup will stop creating /etc/timezone
soon. Note that the list of affected source packages was compiled
with codesearch, so false positives are possible. Thank you.
