Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evolution
What I expected to Happen:
Time displayed in evolution calendar (as indicated by the Marcus Bains line)
should match system time (as displayed on the panel clock, date command, etc).
What happens instead:
the time evolution uses internally doesn't match the system clock settings (out
by one hour).
Both the system locale and the evolution locale are Australia/Perth.
I think that it is related to the timezone data, as there is no option
to apply daylight savings corrections for Australia/Perth in evolution
(we currently are in daylight savings time). Appointments are displayed
at the right time, but notifications are an hour late due to the lag
between evolution's time and the system time. (evolution thinks that we
are UTC+8. Whereas system says UTC+9, which is correct).
