Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

A double click on a date opens evolution with the wrong date, this happens since I've upgraded to maverick.

I.E. I click on 2010-10-12, then 2010-10-11 get's opened. It's always the day before the one I've selected.
2010-01-01 opens 2010-09-30 and so on.

It might be a reocurrence of #139627 (I've not reopened it, because it is so old)

This happens to me as well. What i found out so far is, that it seems to work with some time zones. with my time zone (germany, berlin, UTC+01) the clock applet opens evolution with wrong date.

Interesting, I'm running with the same timezone. Looks like a localtime/gmtime bug or something.

Is somebody working on this problem? It is really annoying and it seems to be a general problem of the latest linux distributions. This bug happens in fedora 14 too.

Just upgraded to natty.

Now the date is correct but the month is wrong:

I double click on 2011-05-09 and evolution opens with 2011-04-09
