OK, so what the point do you want to insist? I think you want to use
internationalized "tzselect". If so, use "tzsetup" in debian. The
current debian glibc package has timezone select, but I think it
should be removed from this package, and replace all timezone
selection to tzsetup. The reason for remaining tzselect and postinst
setting is that I don't still have much time to investigate it.
