Package: mbr
Version: 1.1.11-5

Hello,

install-mbr.c tries to read the "UTC" setting from /etc/default/rcS.
But this got moved to /etc/adjtime almost 4 years ago:

| sysvinit (2.88dsf-25) experimental; urgency=low
| 
|   [ Roger Leigh ]
|   * Build with hardening flags enabled; CFLAGS and LDFLAGS are passed
|     to all build commands.
|   * initscripts:
|     - /etc/default/rcS is no longer managed by ucf, and is a regular
|       conffile.  Drop the UTC setting, which has been migrated to
|       /etc/adjtime by util-linux.  Break util-linux << 2.20.1-5 in order
|       to ensure correct migration of the UTC setting before the file is
|       upgraded.
|     - Use ifquery in /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs to replace complex
|       parsing.  Also only run if inet or inet6 interfaces have been
|       configured, to avoid freezing when the interface hasn't yet
|       been configured (Closes: #674039).
|     - %VM tmpfs size calculation works when swap is disabled.

Since then this setting is determined by the third line in
/etc/adjtime ("UTC" or "LOCAL"), defaulting to "UTC" if not existing.
See man hwclock(8) for details.

Thanks for considering,

Martin
