 I am wondering if it has any issues with (or patch for) the new DST rules

This is managed by OS tzdata/glibc packages and not evolution , afaik.

A question comes to mind: does it mean some appointments in the past
will change local time ?

Unfortunately, libical (an unmaintained third-party library that's
distributed with Evolution-Data-Server) does use it's own timezone
information.

Hmmm.
Is this on anyone's radar or is there any talk of doing something about it 
in Evolution if the libical group is still wrestling with it (I see a lot 
of confusion on that bug link, but no committed resoolution, but maybe 
it's just late on a Friday...)?

Thanks,
