Alarm for all-day event triggers at 0:00 UTC not local time
Last modified: 2013-09-10 14:04:09 UTC
Description of Problem: If you create an all-day event with a relative alarm (e.g. the stock 'notify me 30 minutes before the start'), the alarm triggers at 00:00 UTC minus 30 minutes, not at 00:00 local time minus 30 minutes. I had an all-day event with a -30 minute alarm, and the notification popped up at 17:30 my time; I'm 6 hours behind UTC. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Create an all-day event 2. Set up an alarm for it 3. Wait Actual Results: The reminder shows up at 00:00 UTC minus the reminder offset. Expected Results: The reminder should show up at 00:00 local time minus the reminder offset. How often does this happen? I just noticed it this once. Additional Information: This is evolution-2.0.1-1.3 as it comes with NLD. This is related to bug 258748.
it only happened once? Could you attach the event for which you got the alarm at wrong time?
Replicable in 2.2.1
very related to bug 304278
sigh... also perhaps also related to bug 266845
