This now leaves /etc/timezone completely redundant, as you should get exactly the same answer by readlink /etc/localtime -- and if you do not get the same answer, you have an inconsistency. /etc/localtime obviously "wins" for the actual clock (as that's what programs are reading), but you presumably get the /etc/timezone value in some "system configuration tool" packages which read /etc/timezone first. As /etc/timezone is a Debianism and /etc/localtime the distro-agnostic standard, stop creating /etc/timezone. But keep updating /etc/timezone if present.
