Description Martin Ostertag 2006-05-29 15:32:27 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.6 
OS:                Solaris

on solaris the applet clock displays the wrong timezone. This is the case due to a bug in kdelibs/kdecore/ktimezones.cpp. The class does not return valid timezones on Solaris 2.8. The shell script trying to create a zones.tab fails. attached is a fix, which works for me on Solaris 2.8.

I have tested this patch on OpenSolaris (Solaris Nevada Build 78) with KDE 3.5.8 compiled using Gcc 3.4.3 and it works. I am able to see all the timezones instead of only "UTC" that I was getting earlier.

Is this still happening on KDE4?
Thanks

Comment 4 Maarten De Meyer 2012-10-24 10:27:50 UTC

Can somebody using solaris with KDE 4 confirm if this is still happening?
Looking at comment #3 I think not.
