Although it's not clear what you're asking for, but perhaps these 
example shell commands will help:

  $ ls -l /etc/localtime
  lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 41 Oct 29  2019 /etc/localtime -> 
../usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles
  $ date; TZ=America/Los_Angeles date; TZ=Europe/Rome date
  Thu Mar 23 16:00:05 PDT 2023
  Thu Mar 23 16:00:05 PDT 2023
  Fri Mar 24 00:00:05 CET 2023

At any rate this is not a bug so I'm closing the bug report.
