Description FiNeX 2008-08-14 16:09:50 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

1) set the short date format to MM/DD/YY (on systemsettings)
2) start korganizer and add/edit an event
3) focus the start/end date
4) press UP/DOWN key on keyboard

The year will loose the "0" digit and from the current year (2008) it will go to year 8... 2000 year ago :-) and the day will be changed.

If the date format is dD/mM/YYYY, UP/DOWN will change ONLY the day (which is correct), but the year doesn't change!!!

Thanks to doviende for reporting it on http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute/Bugsquad/BugDays/KDEPIMKrush1

I only have these three options:

DD.MM.YYYY
dD.mM.YYYY
YYYY-MM-DD

Can you check if you still have the DD.MM.YY option in >=KDE4.2?

Fixed by David Faure in commit 928366 in trunk, and 928370 in 4.2 branch.
