Motivation for this change
tzupdate
allows you to update your timezone based on geoip. This is pretty handy for travellers!I included a service that sets up a one-shot systemd service to update the timezone. I didn't make it start automatically, because I couldn't figure out a way to make it only run after internet access was available.
Additionally, geoip can be somewhat spotty, so having it only run when asked for seems safest.
