New install of fedora 26 with kodi from the rpmfusion repos. Followed all the instructions in the wiki on fedora 26 install.

So why does kodi get it wrong? (And more important, how can I fix it?)
An strace of timedatectl shows it doing some kind of dbus call to actually get the info, so God alone only knows where systemd has actually stashed the timezone setting.
