>Description:
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.
>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
>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!
