[Shorewall-users] kerneltz vs localtz

Hello,

I'm using datetime rules and as I am using the "localtz" keyword, I'm
getting the following messages when shorewall starts:

WARNING: --localtz is being replaced by --kerneltz, since "local" is
ambiguous. Note the kernel timezone has caveats - see manpage for
details.

I guess that I am not the only one getting this message since I am not
the only one running a kernel with revision 3.2.1.
Replacing blindly "localtz" by "kerneltz" does not work as shorewall
does not recognize this keyword.
As I have not found any message related to shorewall on this
particular subject, I was wondering if there was a way to fix this or
if something was planned to fix it.

I am looking forward for your answers,

Thibault.
