I searched everywhere I can and cannot figure out where this came from.
Several users, including myself have encountered a case where the timezone of our OH instance changed. This is the important part. i was running happily with US/Mountain as my timezone. Then I ran an apt upgrade and the timezone changed.
This is an openHABian machine and the upgrade was to really just fix OH to 4.3. It’s a 32-bit machine 100 miles away. It’s going to be a long time before I get to upgrade the OS so I can run OH 5. I don’t know if that’s relevant. But I did everything manually, not by going through openhabian-config.
I looked in all the usual places and found that -Duser.timezone=Europe/Berlin was added to /etc/default/openhab.
Now my problem is I can’t figure out where that would have been changed. I searched all of openHAB for "user.timezone` and only four repos return anything: docs, docker, linuxpkg and openHABian.
Docs and Docker are not relevant here.
openHABian does change this file, but the code looks correct. It cats /etc/timezone to a variable and uses that. I verified /etc/timezone on my machine is correct as US/Mountain. linuxpkg seems to just have this file with user.tiemzone only in a comment.
I can’t figure out where to file an issue. My first thought is linuxpkg but I can’t see how it changes that file. openHABian does change that file but I can’t see how it ever got Europe/Berlin for the timezone and I didn’t use openhabian-config to upgrade in the first place.
I need some advice so I can file an issue in the right place.
