Description Alejandro Lopez 2020-11-15 17:47:28 CET
Description of problem:
Yesterday I applied the latest updates available. This included updating to timezone-2020d-1.mga7. Since that moment, my Gnome Shell is showing a wrong time (UTC+2) and it claims to be in timezone CEST (which casually is UTC+2) while it should be CET (UTC+1) by this time of the year.

However, the date and timedatectl commands show the right time and timezone.

# timedatectl
               Local time: dom 2020-11-15 17:13:40 CET
           Universal time: dom 2020-11-15 16:13:40 UTC
                 RTC time: dom 2020-11-15 17:13:39
                Time zone: Europe/Paris (CET, +0100)
System clock synchronized: no
              NTP service: active
          RTC in local TZ: yes


# cat /etc/sysconfig/clock
ARC=false
UTC=false
ZONE=Europe/Paris

When I downgraded to timezone-2019c, everything came back to normal.

Note: Gnome requires restarting the session in order to show the new time after upgrading or downgrading the package. However, Gnome Control Center doesn't require this and shows the right or wrong time and timezone immediatelly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
timezone-2020d-1.mga7

How reproducible:
Always after the package is updated

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update from timezone-2019c to timezone-2020d.
2. Time and timezone shown by Gnome Control Center (and Gnome Shell after session restart) are wrong (CEST).
3. Downgrade back to timezone-2019c.
4. Time and timezone shown by Gnome Control Center (and Gnome Shell after session restart) are correct (CET).
