Description Herbert J. Skuhra 2024-09-07 08:17:20 UTC 
tzsetup creates a broken symlink when using with -C option (e.g make installworld DESTDIR=$X). e.g:

# jexec -l 1 date
Sat Sep  7 10:13:19 CEST 2024
# ls -l /jails/mail/etc/localtime
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel 33 Sep  7 10:13 /jails/mail/etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
# tzsetup -C /jails/mail -r
# ls -l /jails/mail/etc/localtime
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel 45 Sep  7 10:14 /jails/mail/etc/localtime -> /jails/mail//usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
# jexec -l 1 date
Sat Sep  7 08:14:45 UTC 2024
