Subject: [PATCH 0/1] hwclock: Remove TZUTC
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2015 19:45:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55398435.4090504@gmx.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1429764592-15947-1-git-send-email-ibid.ag@gmail.com>


The patch that introduced TZUTC should have been rejected.
Mr. Parmelee misunderstood how to use and configure the
zoneinfo 'right' database. This was likely due to the 'right'
database being undocumented. I added information about the
database to the hwclock(8) man-page, and intended to remove
the TZUTC environment variable from hwclock when refactoring.
Since this regression needs to be addressed, it might as well
be removed now.

TZUTC is undocumented and should be safe to remove.
