Hmmm. It looks like this is a relatively old issue. Once upon a time tzsetup had its own postinst, but it is now called from clock-setup. And clock-setup is not built for s390, I suspect because the installer is not supposed to mess with the system clock of an s/390 system. So, currently tzsetup does get installed on s390 (as it is Priority standard), but the tzsetup script never gets executed. And that results in time/zone being empty. But tzsetup definitely should be run, so we need some kind of special handling here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
