[ptxdist] [PATCH] timezone: introduce option TIMEZONE_INSTALL_LOCALTIME for more flexibility with own rules

[Alexander Dahl <post@lespocky.de>]

This patch introduces TIMEZONE_INSTALL_LOCALTIME as variable before
GLIBC_LOCALTIME. You can decide now if you want to install
/etc/localtime and /etc/timezone. I actually used this for a 

"depends on !TIMEZONE_INSTALL_LOCALTIME"

in one of my own rules which where I can decide if this is stored in
root filesystem or on a separare data partition with symlinks to it.

Maybe it's handy for the public.
