Actual Results: I've selected 'Asia/Tokyo' for Time zone at the install time, but redhat-config-date always point 'America/New_York. Expected Results: the current setting's value should be selected by default. Additional info:
Should be fixed in 1.5.2-3. QA, please verify.
Hmm, there seems to be qa contact for this bug, adding myself. This bug is fixed in the literal sense: redhat-config-date does indeed read the currect timezone/utc settings from /etc/sysconfig/clock. However, any changes mad e are not written back to this file. I am testing with redhat-config-date-1.5.2-10. See also bug#73498.
The fix is in CVS now, but I can't push new packages to Rawhide now due to some problem with the build system. Should be fixed in 1.5.2-11. QA, please verify. The RPM can be found in dist-8.0.1.

It seems to want to only see 0/1 and it seems to always write 0/1. Note that rc.sysinit *doesn't understand* 0 or 1 for UTC or ARC, though to be fair this is probably a bug in initscripts (since it does initialize them to be 0).
UTC/ARC is a true/false field, not a 0/1 field. At least, that's how it's documented and implemented. ;)
Should be fixed properly now (hopefully). Please test with redhat-config-date-1.5.3-1 in dist-8.0.1
Confirmed fix. CLOSING->RAWHIDE
