Description Larry Rosenman freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2002-04-26 03:40:01 UTC
the mail/evolution port mis-handles Daylight savings time.  There is a patch
that will fix it in 1.0.4, but who knows when that will be released.  I'll
place a patch that works for FreeBSD below.

Fix: I discovered (and reported to the Evolution team) a bug where on
FreeBSD the timezone is adjusted to be one hour off from reality when
DST is in effect. 

The Evolution team fixed it in CVS for 1.0.4, but I don't know when it
will be out.  

Can the port be modified to patch

camel/camel-mime-message.c

to remove the lines around line 212 
that set offset += 100? 

Not a problem, but please submit a patch instead of a verbal description.

Thanks!

Here is my quickie patch, I'm not sure how y'all want to do it.  it
definately fixes FreeBSD....

How-To-Repeat: Build Evolution 1.3, send mail (in a place where DST is in effect), note
the Date: header has a Timezone indiction is one hour west of where it was
