Title:
[datetime] Standard alarms will not work correctly for Timers, after
timezone/DST change
Status in Timer:
New
Status in Ubuntu Clock App:
Incomplete
Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Standard alarms will not work correctly after changing timezone and
during DST change.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Timer from Store: https://uappexplorer.com/app/timer.mivoligo
2. Set timer to 5 minutes
3. Open Clock app. Look for alarm, and notice that alarm is correctly set
3. Switch to System Settings -> Time & Date -> Time zone:
4. Change Time zone to something different (eg. New York). (Or wait for DST
change: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time)
Expected behaviour:
- timer ringing as expected after timezone/DST change
Current behaviour:
- alarm is not ringing. (you could check active alarms in "Ubuntu Clock app)
Proposal solution:
- introduce new type of alarms, which is based on UTC
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time) and independent from
time zones.
