I just quote comment 3 from the linked bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/737914#c3: |

"copying the zonefile to /etc/localtime is a good idea, as /usr could be on a separate partition. How about creating the |

|
10 |
/etc/TZ -> /etc/timezone softlink by default?" |

In my opinion so many tools tend to expect an always-mounted /usr that the |
13 |
symlink would not do any harm. FWIW I use symlinks on a handfull Gentoo machines |
14 |
and had no issues in years, but I'm pretty close to mainstream (amd64, glibc, |
15 |
OpenRC). |
