Description Ingo Ratsdorf 2010-08-19 02:26:53 UTC

Version:           4.4.5 (using KDE 4.4.95) 
OS:                Linux

All events are shifted by TZ offset.
Ie Event on 25 Aug. from 9:00 to 16:00 (NZDT) will be displayed in summary as two events, one on 24 Aug. from 9:00 to 23:59 and one on 25 Aug from 00:00 to 16:00.
If event does not cross 12:00 midday, then the date of the event is incorrectly shown in summary on the day before or on the correct day if the event is after 12:00.
 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Add event with timezone "Pacific/Auckland" that goes some hours crossing the midday 12:00 and see result in summary.

Actual Results:  
Split events into two showing wrong due times, repeating events do not open on the appropriate day. Due date given sometimes in hours rather than days (due in 105 hours is meaningless!).

Expected Results:  
Dates corresponding with the date of the event, due times shown in days and hours, or hours only when due in less than a day.

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.32-24-generic
Compiler: cc

It would appear that this bug was resolved in the latest Kontact, although it is still displaying some events as "in 2 days" or "in three days" which is correct, whereas some events are shown as "in 268 hours 24 min", which is silly. The latter applies to ANY repeating event.
