A few days ago, I upgraded a dual boot system from Lubuntu 15.10 to 16.04, and could not get the system to accept that the clock was set to the local timezone, not UTC. The upgrade stripped the UTC setting from /etc/default/rcS:

# assume that the BIOS clock is set to UTC time (recommended)
UTC=no

I put the UTC variable setting back in /etc/default/rcS, as advised many search results on this problem, and it had no effect. Now I find this bug report. Checking, my system had no /etc/adjtime file. Shouldn't this file have been created during the upgrade? It was created when I ran "timedatectl set-local-rtc 1" manually.
