Source: libsys-info-driver-linux-perl
Severity: normal

libsys-info-driver-linux-perl is currently referencing /etc/timezone
without support for /etc/localtime. /etc/timezone is a legacy
interface that is Debian specific. The cross-distro standard
/etc/localtime (as a symlink to the appropriate timezone file), so
please switch your package to /etc/localtime. tzsetup will stop
creating /etc/timezone soon. Note that the list of affected source
packages was compiled with codesearch, so false positives are
possible. Thank you.
