timezone file is not working any more

[agaengel]

I just updated my openhab and noticed that time zone file is not working any more.

with out further checking I think dpkg-reconfigure -f noninteractive tzdata behaves other in the ubuntu:16.04 image.

Thanks.. looks like ubuntu 16.04 uses timedatactl to set timezone... which depends on systemd/dbus. The easy fix (timedatectl set-timezone $tz) gives all kinds of issues with dbus missing, etc.. Will try and find a solution.

I found a solution for the timezone problem and created a pull request #30
