+Subject: [PATCH] Also look at /etc/localtime-copied-from
+
+In Slackware, /etc/localtime is a copy of the local timezone file, not a
+symlink to it, but the latest glib expects a symlink (because that's been
+demanded by systemd and guess-who). So, if we find that /etc/localtime is
+not a symlink, consider /etc/localtime-copied-from next. On Slackware
+systems this will be a symlink to the local timezone file under
+/usr/share/zoneinfo. We still want to consider the possibility that
+/etc/localtime *is* a symlink first though, since that's an acceptable
+local system modification on Slackware.
