Public bug reported:

I'm in Chicago and the correct date/time is Thu Apr 21 08:33:02 UTC
2016. There is no way I would be at work in the office at 3am :-)

The UTC is picking up my CDT data. Even when I switch to another
timezone, like Africa, UTC is showing local time CDT.


jcrochon@achilles:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Current default time zone: 'America/Chicago'
Local time is now:      Thu Apr 21 03:33:02 CDT 2016.
Universal Time is now:  Thu Apr 21 08:33:02 UTC 2016.

jcrochon@achilles:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Current default time zone: 'Africa/Abidjan'
Local time is now:      Thu Apr 21 08:33:11 GMT 2016.
Universal Time is now:  Thu Apr 21 08:33:11 UTC 2016.

jcrochon@achilles:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Current default time zone: 'America/Chicago'
Local time is now:      Thu Apr 21 03:33:20 CDT 2016.
Universal Time is now:  Thu Apr 21 08:33:20 UTC 2016.
