Ahh It gets clearer now. I thought the world-clock uses the location where I pressed 'set' as home. Thence my incredulity about the clock changing how it works despite me not fiddling with its preferences.
I assumed the clock should keep the last 'set' location regardless of the system timezone. I still think this is an issue though as it is not good that the world- clock tries to 'guess' ones location depending on the timezone that the computer is set to. What is required then is a way to change the home-location in the applet without the applet trying to change my system time. For example no matter where I travel I 'always' keep my timezone at 'UTC' this way there is no confusion with log-files and timezone transitions. Right now as the clock is programmed this scenario would not work as the applet would on me arriving at new locations (and pressing set) try to change my time zones back and forth and otherwise deny setting a new location if I do not grant authorization to do so. -- weather not shown in world-clock-applet when computer timezone differs from home location timezone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232375 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
