I think you are supposed to link that localtime file instead of
copying.  If the file in zoneinfo gets updated then the one in /etc will
still be the old one.
    

You are not supposed to link it any more, because that will break if /usr
has not yet been mounted. Set the correct timezone in /etc/conf.d/clock
and portage will copy the correct file to /etc/localtime whenever you
update timezone-data.

  
Someone correct me if I am wrong here.
    

Done ;-)


  

Learn something every day.  Funny, it has been a long time since I had to reinstall Linux.  It just runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs and runs. . . . . .

I did check and it was changed to a regular file on mine too.  I guess it did that itself during the update.  I don't remember doing it anyway.

Thanks for the correction.
