Did this issue happen with current versions of Icedove? I don't know "Thunderbirthday", this is not a regular Addon packaged for Debian I think so we can't do anything here if this plugin does something wrong. You have to contact the author of this plugin. my report is old indeed, but the bug does still manifest with latest experimental 17.0.5. thunderbirthday is the program that uses the birthday correctly, so it's not part of the bug report. please add to your address book a contact born on march 15, 1968. when you look at the address book you'll see summary data under the list. when this specific contact is selected,his/her birthday, displayed in the "other" subsection of the summary, shows march 14, instead of 15. other dates, even around this one, seem to show correctly. would you give it a try? Or do you mean the package iceowl-extension? Regards Carsten -- best regards, alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
