Bug Description
Impact
======
Users who have their computer time set to 12-hour time (AM/PM) instead of 24-hour are unable to schedule PM events in gnome-calendar. 12-hour time is the default in the United States.
The update fixes this issue and a few more.

Test Case
=========
1. Open the Calendar app.
2. Click on a date to schedule a new event. Click Edit Details.
3. Are you able to set an event that starts and ends in the afternoon?
Open the System Settings app. Click Time & Date. Switch time from 12-hour to 24-hour (or the opposite). Repeat steps 1-3.
4. Schedule a new event that starts on one day and ends on the next. Click the all-day box and hit Done.
The event should span both days on the calendar.
Regression Potential
=======
Low. This is a new upstream stable bugfix release and is recommended for all distros shipping GNOME 3.20.
The 3.20.3 release was insufficient and might have made things worse ( https:/
Original Bug Report
===================
The bug is 100% reproducible. I can schedule "AM" events and all day events, but no "PM" events. I would expect the part of to advance after I had passed noon, but I can keep cycling through the first 12 hours of the day.

Thank you for your bug report, could you give some extra details?
- how do you add the event (using the menu, clicking on a day)
- what view mode do you use?
- do you get the issue in a guest session?
I can't reproduce it using the en_US locale ...
