Description Tristan Miller 2009-10-14 16:11:58 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Reproducibility: Always

Steps to reproduce:

1. Settings->Configure Korganizer->Time and Date->Regional
2. Select "Europe/London" from the "Time zone" drop-down list
3. OK
4. Quit Korganizer
5. Reload Korganizer
6. Settings->Configure Korganizer->Time and Date->Regional

Observed results:

7. The "Time zone" drop-down list is set to "Europe/Guernsey", not "Europe/London" as we previously selected.  Also, whenever we create a new appointment, the time zone is shown as "Europe/Guernsey".  However, the contents of ~/.kde4/share/config/korganizerrc includes the following section:

[Time & Date]
Daylight Savings=0
Default Alarm Time=3
Default Start Time=10
Holidays=gb
Time Zone=+0000
TimeZoneId=Europe/London

This appears to be the same problem as bug number 170380, I think it is now fixed (I am the reporter, not a developer)

Comment 2 Caly 2012-05-03 17:42:55 UTC

America/Costa Rica timezone, can't not be set, also I can't add any new event, new to-do, new journal, not show on calendar with highlight

Comment 3 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 18:50:54 UTC

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of korganizer (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Comment 4 Tristan Miller 2016-09-25 16:31:13 UTC

The bug is no longer present in KOrganizer 5.1.3 because the Settings dialog no longer allows the user to select a time zone.  I'd mark this as RESOLVED but I'm not sure which resolution type to use (FIXED, WORKSFORME, UNMAINTAINED, INVALID?).

not applicable to modern versions
