/etc/sysconfig/clock: No such file or directory

This is gibberish. Is that a problem?

I think I did:
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

It is important not to separate mathematics from life. You can explain
fractions even to heavy drinkers. If you ask them, ‘Which is larger,
2/3 or 3/5?’ it is likely they will not know. But if you ask, ‘Which
is better, two bottles of vodka for three people, or three bottles of
vodka for five people?’ they will answer you immediately. They will
say two for three, of course.
Israel Gelfand, in a 2003 interview with the New York Times
