Qt assumes that /etc/localtime is a symlink to your chosen timezone file.

e.g.
> file /etc/localtime                                                                                                                                                                                                             
/etc/localtime: symbolic link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Zurich

But no one has that, or would know that, because that is not what tzsetup(8) does, and there is no option to tell it to do so. Why would finding a regular file instead of a sym link break Qt? Is that not a bug in Qt?

This is already fixed by: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=541830

Thanks for your hard work with KDE on FreeBSD!
