This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 218-5ubuntu1

---------------
systemd (218-5ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Hack to support system-image read-only /etc, and modify files in
      /etc/writable/ instead.
    - Keep our much simpler udev maintainer scripts (all platforms must
      support udev, no debconf).
    - initramfs init-top: Drop $ROOTDELAY, we do that in a more sensible way
      with wait-for-root. Will get applicable to Debian once Debian gets
      wait-for-root in initramfs-tools.
    - initramfs init-bottom: If LVM is installed, settle udev,
      otherwise we get missing LV symlinks. Workaround for LP #1185394.
    - Add debian/udev.lvm2.init: Dummy SysV init script to satisfy insserv
      dependencies to "lvm2" which is handled with udev rules in Ubuntu.
    - Provide shutdown fallback for upstart. (LP: #1370329)
    - debian/extra/ifup@.service: Additionally run for "auto" class. We don't
      really support "allow-hotplug" in Ubuntu at the moment, so we need to
      deal with "auto" devices appearing after "/etc/init.d/networking start"
      already ran. (LP: #1374521)
    - Add Get-RTC-is-in-local-time-setting-from-etc-default-rc.patch: In
      Ubuntu we currently keep the setting whether the RTC is in local or UTC
      time in /etc/default/rcS "UTC=yes|no", instead of /etc/adjtime.
      (LP: #1377258)
    - Put session scopes into all cgroup controllers. This makes unprivileged
      user LXC containers work under systemd. (LP: #1346734)
    - Lower Breaks: to plymouth version which has the udev inotify fix in
      Ubuntu.
    - Lower libappamor1 dep to the Ubuntu version where it moved to /lib.
    - Make failure of boot-and-services NSpawn.test_boot non-fatal for now.
      This currently fails when being triggered by Jenkins, but is totally
      unreproducible when running this manually on the exact same machine.

    Upgrade fixes, keep until 16.04 LTS release:
    - systemd Conflicts/Replaces/Provides systemd-services.
    - Remove obsolete systemd-logind upstart job.
    - Clean up obsolete /etc/udev/rules.d/README.

systemd (218-5) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Drop logger.agent. It hasn't been called from any udev rule for a long
    time, and looks obsolete.
  * debian/rules: Configure with --disable-firstboot to replace some manual
    file removals.
  * debian/rules: Remove manual file installation, move them to
    debian/*.install. Move all Debian specific installed files to
    debian/extra/.
  * Merge some changes from the Ubuntu package to reduce the delta; these only
    apply when building on/for Ubuntu:
    - Add 40-hyperv-hotadd.rules: Workaround for LP: #1233466.
    - Add 61-persistant-storage-android.rules to create persistent symlinks
      for partitions with PARTNAME. By Ricardo Salveti.
    - Add 71-power-switch-proliant.rules for supporting the power switches of
      ProLiant Server Cartridges. By Dann Frazier.
    - Add 78-graphics-card.rules: Mark KMS capable graphics devices as
      PRIMARY_DEVICE_FOR_DISPLAY so that we can wait for those in plymouth.
      By Scott James Remnant.
    - Don't install the Debian *.agent scripts. Instead, have Ubuntu's
      80-networking.rules directly pull in ifup@.service, which is much easier
      and more efficient.
  * Make EPERM/EACCESS when applying OOM adjustment for forked processes
    non-fatal. This happens in user namespaces like unprivileged LXC
    containers.
  * Fix assertion failure due to /dev/urandom being unmounted when shutting
    down unprivileged containers. Thanks Stéphane Graber.
  * Enable EFI support. This mostly auto-mounts /sys/firmware/efi/efivars, but
    also provides a generator for auto-detecting the root and the /boot/efi
    partition if they aren't in /etc/fstab. (Closes: #773533)

systemd (218-4) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * sysv-generator: handle Provides: for non-virtual facility names.
    (Closes: #774335)
  * Fix systemd-remount-fs.service to not fail on remounting /usr if /usr
    isn't mounted yet. This happens with initramfs-tools < 0.118 which we
    might not get into Jessie any more. (Closes: #742048)

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * fstab-generator: Handle mountall's non-standard "nobootwait" and
    "optional" options. ("bootwait" is already the systemd default behaviour,
    and "showthrough" is irrelevant here, so both can be ignored).
  * Add autopkgtest for one-time boot with upstart when systemd-sysv is
    installed. This test only works under Ubuntu which has a split out
    upstart-bin package, and will be skipped under Debian.
  * debian/ifup@.service: Check if ifup succeeds by calling ifquery, to
    work around ifup not failing on invalid interfaces (see #773539)
  * debian/ifup@.service: Set proper service type (oneshot).
  * sysv-generator: Handle .sh suffixes when translating Provides:.
    (Closes: #775889)
  * sysv-generator: Make real units overwrite symlinks generated by Provides:
    from other units. Fixes failures due to presence of backup or old init.d
    scripts. (Closes: #775404)
  * Fix journal forwarding to syslog in containers without CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
    (Closes: #775067)
  * Re-enable AppArmor support, now that libapparmor1 moved to /lib. Add
    versioned dependency as long as this is still only in experimental.
    (Closes: #775331)
  * Add some missing dpkg and ucf temp files to the "hidden file" filter, to
    e. g. avoid creating units for them through the sysv-generator.
    (Closes: #775903)
  * Silence useless warning about /etc/localtime not being a symlink. This is
    deliberate in Debian with /usr (possibly) being on a separate partition.
    (LP: #1409594)

  [ Christian Kastner ]
  * Use common-session-noninteractive in systemd-user's PAM config, instead of
    common-session. The latter can include PAM modules like libpam-mount which
    expect to be called just once and/or interactively, which already happens
    for login, ssh, or the display-manager. Add pam_systemd.so explicitly, as
    it's not included in -noninteractive, but is always required (and
    idempotent). There is no net change on systemd which don't use manually
    installed PAM modules. (Closes: #739676)

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * Make sure we run debian-fixup.service after /var has been mounted if /var
    is on a separate partition. Otherwise we might end up creating the
    /var/lock and /var/run symlink in the underlying root filesystem.

Title:
  Useless systemd-timedated /etc/localtime symlink complain in syslog

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  systemd-timedated complain about /etc/localtime not being a symbolic
  link. From syslog:

      systemd-timedated[1074]: /etc/localtime should be a symbolic link
  to a timezone data file in /usr/share/zoneinfo/.

  As Ubuntu (and Debian) uses a copy of /usr/share/zoneinfo/... instead
  of symlink, ref.:

  https://wiki.debian.org/TimeZoneChanges

  “[…] In Debian releases Etch and later, /etc/localtime is a copy of
  the original data file. […]”

  And also what is done per configuration by dpkg-reconfigure tzdata,
  the message is unnecessary at best.

  The man page is also adding to the confusion by, ref:

  http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/utopic/en/man5/localtime.5.html

  
  “Because the timezone identifier is extracted from the symlink target
   name of /etc/localtime, this file may not be a normal file or hardlink.”
