[Bug 436076] Re: system clock not adjusted when hardware clock in localtime

[Daniel Añez Scott]

Getting this bug in kubuntu 12.04. My locale is VET,  UTC=no in rcS.
Also, plymouth blinks so it doesn't get to show the error, but I know it's that one, so I have to boot to recovery mode and run fsck, which messes up the clock in order to adjust it to the "present"...

Title:
  system clock not adjusted when hardware clock in localtime

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “util-linux” source package in Karmic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: util-linux

  Since the Upstart migration, we appear to have regressed on this
  again.

  The system clock doesn't get adjusted to UTC when the hardware clock
  is in localtime.

  This will cause one of the following two errors on boot:

    hwclock main process (85) terminated with status 1

  or (worse):

    /dev/sda1: Superblock last mount time (Thu Sep 24 20:58:00 2009,
            now = Thu Sep 24 19:59:23 2009) is in the future.

    /dev/sda1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
            (i.e., without -a or -p options)
    mountall: fsck / [93] terminated with status 4
    mountall: Filesystem has errors: /
