Hi Stéphane.
The man pages for tzconfig mention that tzconfig changes /etc/timezone.
Does
cat /etc/timezone
return Europe/Paris, or does it say something else? Might be a good
diagnostic tool to let you know if tzconfig is working as you expect.
A long shot: if
date
is an alias for
date -u,
then that would account for your problem.
Good luck!
