in repository openembedded-core.

commit 98b6420952cbf73ddd1318f36c68d575c330eb71
Author: Andre McCurdy <armccurdy at gmail.com>

    base-files: don't export TZ="UTC" from /etc/profile
    
    If no /etc/localtime (or /etc/TZ for uclibc) is found, then the libc
    will default to UTC, so setting UTC as a fallback default via the TZ
    environment variable is redundant.
    
    Since having the TZ environment variable set causes /etc/localtime
    to be ignored, it can cause confusion if /etc/localtime is added
    interactively after /etc/profile has been run.
