Description of problem: I travel a lot, and used system-config-date in prior releases to find a city close to where I end up to set my timezone. Fedora 28 does not include system-config-date, so now I have no gui way to set this. Command line is a pain, and Xfce's clock feature to suggest choices is not much better. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Anaconda included the timezone gui, but then nothing for the OS.
My prior ver was Fedora 24 that had system-config-date. I just found out in a thread on the Fedora users list that it was already missing in F25? This is the only effective GUI tool for timezone setting for desktops like Xfce.
I was just pointed to: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/system-config-date/1.10.9/3.fc25/noarch/system-config-date-1.10.9-3.fc25.noarch.rpm as the last version of system-config-date, and figured that since it was noarch, I would give it a try: dnf install /home/rgm/Downloads/system-config-date-1.10.9-3.fc25.noarch.rpm Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:01 ago on Tue 12 Jun 2018 08:23:00 AM EDT.

But no NTP pool. I had to manually add [0-3].fedora.pool.org. So can someone just do a review and move this properly into F28?
