+@item --disable-timezone-tools
+By default, timezone related utilities (@command{zic}, @command{zdump},
+and @command{tzselect}) are installed with glibc. If you are building
+these independently (e.g. by using the @samp{tzcode} package), then this
+option will allow disabling the install of these too.
+
+Note that you need to make sure the external tools are kept in sync with
+the versions that @theglibc{} expects as the data formats may change over
+time. Consult the @file{timezone} subdirectory for more details.
