Subject: [PATCH V3 1/1] tzset.3: Add Environment section
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2015 19:09:17 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <54C97A2D.2050908@gmx.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <54C4F9E7.6090104-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>
FILES section was overly verbose and included
environment variables. Added ENVIRONMENT section,
removing ENV VARS from the FILES section.
As stated in commit 2c7f200
/usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime
is not used, nor recommended by glibc.
