Description Jonathan Liu 2014-05-27 12:14:08 UTC 
If /etc/localtime is a symbolic link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/... then systemd-nspawn will set the timezone of the container to the timezone of the host.

It should be possible to use the existing /etc/localtime of the systemd-nspawn container instead of replacing it with the host timezone.
Comment 1 Lennart Poettering 2018-07-18 14:37:03 UTC 
This has been implemented in systemd-nspawn 239. Closing.
