Correction: it works for some settings on the clock tab. It seems to work for "Seconds", but not for "Weekday" or "Date and month". Perhaps it's because the seconds setting changes the time part of the clock?

When changing time zone in Ubuntu 13.10, the clock gets stuck on the old time. Yesterday evening I travelled from Manaus to Rio de Janeiro, which is a two hour time zone change to the east. At 20:40 Manaus time, I clicked on the clock on the Gnome panel, selected "Date & Time settings...", and clicked on where Rio de Janeiro is on the world map. It automatically selected Sao Paulo, which I guess is the closest place it has data for. I then closed the Time & Date window. The clock should then have changed to 22:40 (as it would have in Ubuntu 13.04), but instead stayed stuck on 20:40. Right now (11:30 Rio time the following day), the clock in the Gnome panel still says "20:40". Running the date command in a terminal produces the correct time: $ date Tue Oct 22 11:30:42 BRST 2013 so it's definitely a problem with the Gnome clock applet rather than the system time.
