still says:
"In Debian releases Etch and later, /etc/localtime is a copy of the
original data file. Check the contents of /etc/timezone to see the
name of the timezone. If the system is configured normally, you
should find that the zoneinfo file referenced by this name is
identical to /etc/localtime."
I'd change it immediately, but I don't want to make a change that isn't
correct.
Was this paragraph actually correct for Etch? Was /etc/localtime a
literal *copy* of a file instead of symlink? If so, when did it change?
Or, was this wrong for Etch, and /etc/localtime was always a symlink?
