What would you suggest to solve the goal?

Restated here for clarity:

- Set the local time in the chroot to match the server local time.

Would you set both to UTC?

Yes. I would remove /etc/localtime from both the containing server andfrom the chrooted jail. That's simpler and faster than the otheralternatives.
