Dnscrypt log timestamps not synced with ntp or dnsmasq log timestamps

[dugaduga]

Any way to ensure dnscrypt log timestamps are synced up with dnsmasq/ntp? I used ntpmerlin, the problem persisted; I removed ntpmerlin, enabled asuswrtmerlin's built in ntp option in the ui and still dnscrypt logs are not syncing up properly. [related]

I install the timezone option within the dnscrypt installer. This creates a symbolic link to the system and should hopefully resolve your logging issues.

Here is what it looks like when i installed it on my setup.... my logs are properly timestamped with my appropriate timezone attached.
