I have the same issue. I am using a system wide proxy settings and every time I try to lookup for "Auckland" which should show me the Auckland New Zeland time as a choice I do not get anything in the gui as a response.

I'm using a computer with a proxy configured via the network applet (and "Use system-wide" pressed) and suspect that's the root of the trouble however I'm not sure how to go about debugging this, any pointers would be appreciated. Steps taken: * Click clock -> "Time & Date Settings" * Select "Clock" tab * Check "Time in other locations" * Click "Choose Locations" * Click "+" * Type "New Yo" * <wait ~30s> nothing happens Expected results: * On other machines (without the proxied connection) a list of potential locations from which I can select "New York, New York" is shown.
