I'm using debootstrapped Edgy install. Using tzconfig, I noticed that timezone was set to 'Unknown' as default. $ tzconfig Your current time zone is set to Unknown Do you want to change that? [n]: y After I changed the value to 'Europe/Helsinki', time-admin doesn't crash anymore. This bug should be reproducible if timezone is set to Unknown first. ..."
