I have not been able to reproduce this bug using a feisty liveCD. The livefs lacks an /etc/timezone file, but it's correctly created on install by ubiquity, and remains intact across a reboot.
This is of course a serious bug, but if I can't reproduce it I can't fix it properly without risk of regressing other systems where users have removed /etc/timezone by choice. -- /etc/localtime bitrots https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209429 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
