Ok.... here's what I found: Google Calendar is significantly smarter than Evolution 2.30.
I usually enter events in my calendar through an iPhone and occasionally directly by Google Calendar's page. In either case, I don't need to specify a timezone for each individual appointment. Since I enter the appointments from a device set to JST, in a calendar set to JST, in a location that conforms to JST, Google Calendar makes appointments in JST. Evolution 2.30 however, assumes that appointments in a JST calendar, on a JST device, in a location that conforms to JST, but without an explicit timezone specification, are GMT. This issue can be resolved by adding a timezone specification to each and every appointment in your Google Calendar. Good news: Evolution 2.32 seems a bit smarter. Although it initially shows the same behavior, it seems to resync appointments to the correct time zone after a logout. Unfortunately 2.32 is not fully compatible with Maverick; it won't be able to send events to gnome-panel 2.30, and upgrading the entire distribution to Natty should be less painful that calculating the list of backported dependencies to get it all working in Maverick. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/696844 Title: Calendar sync with google - time zone data is incorrect -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
