Package: evolution
Version: 2.6.3-3
Severity: normal
Whilst trying to add Personal Information to a contact in Evolution, I
wanted to enter a birthday, say 23rd February, 1956. On entering this,
in 23/02/1956 format, I get an error indicating I have used an "Invalid
Date Value". On entering 23/02/56 and then clicking on the arrow to the
right of the box to bring up the date selector, it defaults to 2056 and
obviously doesn't show the birthday in my calendar as it thinks that
today is before the person was born. On entering 23/02/1970 and using
the (pretty poor, but that's not the real problem) date selector to move
back 2 years at a time to get to 1956 (which, is correctly displayed as
1956) and then selecting the date on the selector, it enters 23/02/56 in
the box, which, upon using the selector again is back at 2056.
Not sure if this is an evolution bug or in a lib, but it's a bit
annoying. My mum can be 37 years old for now (although worryingly that
does mean she wasn't even a teenager when I was born).
