Bug Description

python-vm-builder: 0.11.3-0ubuntu1
host: 9.10 (karmic)
guest: 9.10 (karmic)

/etc/timezone in the guest is always "Etc/UTC", although I run vmbuilder with "timezone = Europe/Helsinki".
/etc/localtime is correct, but if you run "dpkg-reconfigure -fnoninteractive -pcritical tzdata", the timezone in /etc/localtime is changed to "Etc/UTC".

The attached patch works for me.
