That's still not an issue of CUPS not liking the setting of UTC (how you
originally presented the situation).  The issue of CUPS not working was
not one of "UTC" or "not UTC" being set.

It's CUPS not liking you setting the clock wrongly, as may well happen
with other things.

And that was the point I was making.

Really crash or just exit doing nothing?  There's a difference.

Anyway, it hardly matters, time configuration needs setting up properly
for NTP to work.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
