Closed issue by mayhair on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/48911

Description:
GNOME and other desktop environments have graphical options to change the time zone, hostname, etc. They use dbus interfaces which are packaged with systemd (for example, changing the time zone relies on [`org.freedesktop.timedate1`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/org.freedesktop.timedate1.html)). This means that by default, these options do not work on distros that do not use systemd, including Void.

Gentoo and Alpine, which use OpenRC, are already using [`openrc-settingsd`](https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/openrc-settingsd) to make these options work. Void uses runit, so it cannot use this service as-is, but I still wonder if it would be easy to port it.

I know that these options can already be changed via the command-line, but it would be nice to implement this for users who prefer to change settings graphically.
