wrong date in desktop after suspend resume

[Paul Beardsell]

After resume the time is correct but when this is clicked on (top right) yesterday's date is shown! I went into time&date settings and checked that time&date are set to update via the internet. It was so configured. I brought up a terminal window and the correct date was shown in response to the date command. I went back into date&time settings and unchecked and rechecked the update via the internet option. I logged off from the desktop session and logged back in (no reboot) and all is correct again. Annoying bug which almost caused me to miss an appointment.

Description: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
Release: 12.04

Completely up to date, no strange repositories.

I have been prompted to identify the package against which to assign this bug. I have no idea. I am running the std 12.04 desktop. The date whuch was wrong is the one shown when I click on the time top-right.

I face the same bug (vanilla ubuntu 12.04 32bit, kernel 3.5.0-23-generic) - time is correct, date is wrong after resume from overnight sleep.

right clicking and selecting About on the date/time in the top right corner displays following info:
Indicator Applet Complete - 0.5.0

not sure if this is any helpful to determine versions of binary/package version, but I give a try:

dpkg -l | grep applet
ii gir1.2-panelapplet-4.0 1:3.4.1-0ubuntu1 GObject introspection for the GNOME Panel Applet library
ii gnome-applets 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 Various applets for the GNOME panel - binary files
ii gnome-applets-data 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 Various applets for the GNOME panel - data files
ii gnome-control-center-data 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu0.9 configuration applets for GNOME - data files
ii indicator-applet-complete 0.5.0-0ubuntu1 Clone of the GNOME panel indicator applet
ii libindicator3-7 0.5.0-0ubuntu1 panel indicator applet - shared library
ii libindicator7 0.5.0-0ubuntu1 panel indicator applet - shared library
ii libpanel-applet-4-0 1:3.4.1-0ubuntu1 library for GNOME Panel applets
ii screen-resolution-extra 0.14ubuntu2 Extension for the GNOME screen resolution applet
