Description Kishore Gopalakrishnan 2022-05-15 06:39:10 UTC 
SUMMARY
If the computer's timezone is changed by the user, kalendarac does not pick up the change without a reboot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set an event to start at some particular time A in a timezone T (different from your current timezone), and set a notification to be shown at event start.
2. In System Settings > Regional Settings > Date and Time > timezone, set your computer's timezone to T and apply changes
3. Wait for the time A to arrive.

OBSERVED RESULTS
No reminder is shown at the configured time. However, the reminder is shown at the correct time if the computer is rebooted between steps 2 and 3.

EXPECTED RESULTS
kalendarac should be able to handle timezone changes without reboots, since, e.g., the user may want to change their computer's timezone while travelling.
