I'm not using evolution, anymore - but what is this?!! Or what is Bug Watch Updater doing? Is this supposed to be confirmed or incomplete or invalid or fix released?

My timezone is set to America/New_York (-0400, currently in daylight savings). This is confirmed with 'dpkg-reconfigure tzdata'. Evolution preferences are setup to America/New_York. Output of date: $ date Tue Aug 5 09:41:48 EDT 2008 $ date -u Tue Aug 5 13:41:50 UTC 2008 If I am in 'day view' of the evolution calendar, and I double click on the '12pm' time slot, the Appointment editor dialog displays the time as '4pm', but the Appointment editor dialog shows the timezone as 'America/New_York'. It doesn't seem to make a difference if I choose another timezone, the times are always wrong in the appointment editor. Interestingly, if I double click '12pm', the editor shows '4pm', then if I don't change the time at all and save the appointment, it shows up in the calendar as '8pm'. Creating a new calendar and adding a single event as described (ie double click 12pm, is displays 4pm in edit, save, displays 8pm in evolution) results in: BEGIN:VCALENDAR CALSCALE:GREGORIAN PRODID:-//Ximian//NONSGML Evolution Calendar//EN VERSION:2.0 BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:/softwarestudio.org/Tzfile/America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:STANDARD TZNAME:EST DTSTART:19701102T010000 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=1SU;BYMONTH=11 TZOFFSETFROM:-0400 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT TZNAME:EDT DTSTART:19700308T030000 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=2SU;BYMONTH=3 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20080805T134927Z-19543-1000-1-97@severus DTSTAMP:20080805T134927Z DTSTART;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Tzfile/America/New_York:20080805T160000 DTEND;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Tzfile/America/New_York:20080805T163000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SEQUENCE:2 SUMMARY:bar CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20080805T134952 LAST-MODIFIED:20080805T134952 BEGIN:VALARM X-EVOLUTION-ALARM-UID:20080805T134952Z-19867-1000-1-14@severus DESCRIPTION:bar ACTION:DISPLAY TRIGGER;VALUE=DURATION;RELATED=START:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/254980/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
