Jussi,

Thank you for this patch.

I have a system where the timezone is currently set to "America/Denver" which periodically results in the being incorrectly identified as “Navajo”:

2023-12-22T09:27:46-0700 [19205453]# cat /etc/timezone 
America/Denver

But is identified as “Navajo” here:

connmand[<PID>]: src/timezone.c:__connman_timezone_init() 
connmand[<PID>]: src/timezone.c:__connman_timezone_lookup() sysconfig zone (null)
connmand[<PID>]: src/timezone.c:__connman_timezone_lookup() localtime zone Navajo

But in another run is identified as “America/Denver”:

connmand[<PID>]: src/timezone.c:__connman_timezone_init() 
connmand[<PID>]: src/timezone.c:__connman_timezone_lookup() sysconfig zone (null)
connmand[<PID>]: src/timezone.c:__connman_timezone_lookup() localtime zone America/Denver

I will be eager to see if this patch series fixes this issue.

Best,

Grant
