Hi, David! Thanks for your interest in this bug.

I've just tested it again and the bug is still there. I have the same KAlarm
version as reported previously.
I tied to test it with one-time alarm. I set one display alarm to trigger in
several minutes. It did and I successfully deferred it for several more
minutes. Time calculation was correct. Then I tried to reproduce the bug with
repeating alarm with repeating interval in days.
These are the steps I took;
1. File, New, New Display Alarm (Ctrl+D)
2. Type some display text
3. "At date/time" set to today and checked "Any time"
4. On Recurrence tab I set Daily and Recur every 15 days 
5. After clinking OK, alarm immediately pops.
6. I chose Defer and defer it for 15 hours and 17 minutes, so that it time
boxes above it displays that the alarm should trigger tomorrow at 3 a.m.
7. When I press OK the main KAlarm window shows that the alarm will trigger
tomorrow at 1 p.m. - IT ADDED 10 HOURS.

Furthermore (I just discovered this). After restarting KAlarm and opening main
window, this alarm (previously set for 1 p.m.) was now set to 8 a.m. - it
returned back 5 hours! I'm really puzzled. :)
After repeated restart it stays at 8 a.m.

My suggestion is to check calculation of deferred time for DATE-ONLY alarms. In
my KAlarm settings for "start of day for date-only alarms" I set 5:00. I guess
that that KAlarm added 5 hours to 3 a.m. that I wanted. Main window also added
the same amount, but it only was reflected to display of alarms. After restart
in effect was only first 5 hours added.

After changing "start of day for date-only alarms" to 06:00, main KAlarm window
displayed 3 p.m. and after restarting it got back to 9 a.m. - 6 hours added to
3 a.m. that I wanted.

Please try taking the same steps I took. I'm pretty sure you'll will reproduce
this bug, as I tried everything: deleting data and similar.

Regarding your questions:
- I haven't expresses myself correctly. The system is set to CET (GMT+1). Clock
applet has three time zones set, but I guess it's only relevant to the clock
applet.
- Time zone in KAlarm is same as system time zone (Europe/Sarajevo)
- No, I didn't edit the alarm. I just deferred it, and check if it was set
correctly.
- I will add the attachment so you can examine the calendar and KAlarm
settings.
