Propagate selected timezone to running LiveCD session

[era]

In the Live CD installer, when you have picked your location, it would be nice if the currently running Live CD session could already display the time in the selected time zone while you are finishing the installation.

I mainly noticed because I thought I had mistakenly failed to click "OK" in the timezone dialog or something, way later into the installation process. The system clock in the upper right corner on the upper Gnome panel was still displaying UTC.

[era (era)]

Ubuntu 6.06 i386 Live CD installer, for the record.

era: can you check if that is still an issue in the latest Ubuntu release?

[Phillip Susi (psusi)]

Still happens on 13.10.

This release of Ubuntu is no longer receiving maintenance updates. If this is still an issue on a maintained version of Ubuntu please let us know.

Thanks Marcus for replying. You may close this ticket.
This is very old ticket, may be approx 8 years old.
