Perl can not determine Timezone

# perl -T -MDateTime::TimeZone::Local -le 'print 
DateTime::TimeZone::Local->TimeZone()->name'
Cannot determine local time zone

But Timezone seems to be set correctly

# timedatectl 
      Local time: Fr 2014-10-24 18:55:06 CEST
  Universal time: Fr 2014-10-24 16:55:06 UTC
        RTC time: Fr 2014-10-24 16:55:04
       Time zone: Europe/Berlin (CEST, +0200)
     NTP enabled: no
NTP synchronized: no
 RTC in local TZ: no
      DST active: yes
 Last DST change: DST began at
                  So 2014-03-30 01:59:59 CET
                  So 2014-03-30 03:00:00 CEST
 Next DST change: DST ends (the clock jumps one hour backwards) at
                  So 2014-10-26 02:59:59 CEST
                  So 2014-10-26 02:00:00 CET

Re: Perl can not determine Timezone

It seems to work if i use TZ="UTC"

But this causes a wrong Time of course

Re: Perl can not determine Timezone

Found.

The DateTime::TimeZone is completely useless/unuseable without the AllUtils Package

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-list-allutils/

So this package (even if its in AUR) have to be an dependency... seems like a bug to me
