Bug Description
Using snapweb to set a correct local time.
$ timedatectl
Local time: Thu 2017-03-16 10:03:19 EDT
Universal time: Thu 2017-03-16 14:03:19 UTC
RTC time: Wed 1970-01-14 20:06:13
Time zone: America/New_York (EDT, -0400)
Network time on: yes
NTP synchronized: yes
RTC in local TZ: no
The service overrides it and reports an error

Localtime file does seem linked indirectly to a zoneinfo file
$ ls -l /etc/localtime

$ ls -l /etc/writable/
