Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the extended header to avoid any doubt. I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>/etc/localtime</filename> file configures the
|
|
system-wide timezone of the local system that is used by
|
|
applications for presentation to the user. It should be an
|
|
absolute or relative symbolic link pointing to
|
|
<filename>/usr/share/zoneinfo/</filename>, followed by a timezone
|
|
identifier such as <literal>Europe/Berlin</literal> or
|
|
<literal>Etc/UTC</literal>. The resulting link should lead to the
|
|
corresponding binary
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>tzfile</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
timezone data for the configured timezone.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Because the timezone identifier is extracted from the
|
|
symlink target name of <filename>/etc/localtime</filename>, this
|
|
file may not be a normal file or hardlink.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The timezone may be overridden for individual programs by
|
|
using the <varname>$TZ</varname> environment variable. See
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>environ</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You may use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>timedatectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
to change the settings of this file from the command line during
|
|
runtime. Use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
to initialize the time zone on mounted (but not booted) system
|
|
images.</para>
