On my system, /etc/localtime points to Etc/UTC. When I run mk-sbuild, it fails as follows:

[SRU Justification]
The mk-sbuild command fails to completely set up its schroot environment if /etc/localtime is a symlink, due to wrong 'cp' options. Since /etc/localtime is a symlink /by default/, this makes the tool unusable for most users in xenial.
[Test case]
1. Verify that /etc/localtime is a symlink on your system.
2. Install ubuntu-dev-tools.
3. Run 'mk-sbuild yakkety'. When prompted to edit ~/.sbuildrc, you can accept the defaults.
4. Run 'sg sbuild' to make sure you are in the 'sbuild' group in case this is newly added.
5. Run 'mk-sbuild yakkety' again. Verify that the command output ends with the line:
cp: '/etc/localtime' and '/var/lib/schroot/chroots/yakkety-amd64/etc/localtime' are the same file.
6. Run 'echo $?' to verify that the return value of mk-sbuild is 1.
7. Install ubuntu-dev-tools from xenial-proposed.
8. Run 'sudo rm -rf /var/lib/schroot/chroots/yakkety-amd64' to remove the incompletely-bootstrapped directory from the previous attempt.
9. Run 'mk-sbuild yakkety' again. Confirm that the command exits 0.
10. Confirm that 'schroot -l' shows the yakkety-amd64 chroot.

[SRU Justification]
The mk-sbuild command fails to completely set up its schroot environment if /etc/localtime is a symlink to the default timezone file (Etc/UTC), due to wrong 'cp' options. This makes the tool unusable in xenial on systems with a default config. It also causes the tool to do the wrong thing on systems with a user-configured timezone, as the Etc/UTC file within the chroot environment will be overwritten by the host system's zone file, rather than changing the *target* of the /etc/localtime symlink.
[Test case]
1. Verify that /etc/localtime is a symlink to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/UTC on your system.
2. Install ubuntu-dev-tools.
3. Run 'mk-sbuild yakkety'. When prompted to edit ~/.sbuildrc, you can accept the defaults.
4. Run 'sg sbuild' to make sure you are in the 'sbuild' group in case this is newly added.
5. Run 'mk-sbuild yakkety' again. Verify that the command output ends with the line:
cp: '/etc/localtime' and '/var/lib/schroot/chroots/yakkety-amd64/etc/localtime' are the same file.
6. Run 'echo $?' to verify that the return value of mk-sbuild is 1.
7. Install ubuntu-dev-tools from xenial-proposed.
8. Run 'sudo rm -rf /var/lib/schroot/chroots/yakkety-amd64' to remove the incompletely-bootstrapped directory from the previous attempt.
9. Run 'mk-sbuild yakkety' again. Confirm that the command exits 0.
10. Confirm that 'schroot -l' shows the yakkety-amd64 chroot.
[Regression potential]
Minimal. We don't want to dereference /etc/localtime when copying it into the target environment; this never DTRT and often fails altogether. The fix for this is small and targeted.
On my system, /etc/localtime points to Etc/UTC. When I run mk-sbuild, it fails as follows:
I: Base system installed successfully.
cp: '/etc/localtime' and '/var/lib/schroot/chroots/xenial-amd64/etc/localtime' are the same file
