SUMMARY for about a week, timezone was out by two hours. I have a feeling it happens between when daylight savings happen in Europe and when they happen in US which is the period of a week. This is my suspicion. It's something i recently observed. And i've noticed this in the past also. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Observe time after daylight saving time in UK/Ireland 2. It was wrong (slow) by two hours in the bottom right corner of KDE, but correct when i type 'time' in the terminal 3. Observe time after daylight saving time in US 4. Time in bottom right corner of KDE destop is correct... is same as time command in terminal OBSERVED RESULT time is out by two hours in weeks between Europe Daylight Savings and US Daylight Savings EXPECTED RESULT time should be same in desktop and terminal SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Operating System: Kubuntu 20.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0 Qt Version: 5.12.8 Kernel Version: 5.4.0-52-generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-4900MQ CPU @ 2.80GHz Memory: 31.3 GiB of RAM
If it's right in Konsole but wrong in the clock applet, I suspect a bug in the time provider data engine.
We don't do our own timezone handling, so it won't be our code being wrong. Please include output of: ls -l /etc/localtime and ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc along with which timezone it should be.

Hello and thank you again for the bug report! Unfortunately we were not able to address it yet, nor even manage to reproduce the issue ourselves. Can we ask you to please check if this issue is still happening with Plasma 5.27? If it is, please change the status to REPORTED. Thanks a lot!
