I have configured at installation time.
Then I have installed KDE, and when using KDE I have noticed the problem.

I was trying to play around with the settings in hope of fixing the problem, 
I have changed it in KDE Date&Time settings.
I changed first to Budapest, and it was showing the correct time there.
Then I have changed it back to London, and again it was 1 hour late.

/etc/localtime seems to be a broken symlink. It points to ../GB-Eire

I ran dpkg-reconfigure tzdata now, and now my clock shows the correct time 
and I have an actual /etc/localtime file.

I was trying to change again. When I select Budapest in KDE settings, it 
changes the content of /etc/localtime, but when I select London, 
/etc/localtime becomes a broken symlink again.

Could you please change this bug to point to KDE instead of tzdata?

Thanks for the help.
Gabor
