Description Juergen Harms 2013-03-29 12:00:36 CET
Description of problem:

My digital clock in the KDE panel is customized to have no time-zone shown. After customization everything is OK. But once in a while (no idea what triggers the incident), the clock display starts to show the time-zone, and continues to do so until I do

Right click on clock -> Digital Clock Settings - Appearance

The "Show time zone" checkbutton appears not selected (although the time-zone is displayed). Selecting and then de-selecting again this button and then hitting "Apply" brings me back to normal (time-zone not displayed), and is OK for a couple of days, until - and without any action from my side - the time-zone is displayed again.

This problem may be related to bugzilla 7885 and bugzilla 5851.

Some details: 
- my hardware clock is set to local time,
- I have ntp running
- this problem has been present for a long time (since KDE4.10 ?)



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Happens at random intervals (a few days), but keeps happening

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure digital clock into KDE panel
2. Digital Clock Settings -> Appearance
3. Uncheck "Show time zone"


Reproducible:

(comment #27 to https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5851)

I had not seen the bug re-appear for a very long time - since I installed Mageia5 Beta 1 it is live and kicking again.

A detail I remark now (saw it also in the past, but I did not register the fact then): the bug appears to be due to intempestively and very occasionally have "UTC" becoming set in addtion to the settings I configure in Digital Clock Settings -> Time Zones

Whiteboard: (none) => 5beta1
