Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
Belgium switches to "Winter time" on October 26th this year, while evolution thinks the switch happens on October 19th. The consequence of this is that all times on the shown calendar, are wrong for a week.
I'm using evolution 2.22.3.1-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu Hardy.
An example iCal file is attached. All events in this iCal file are in October 2008. In this month, we are at UTC+0200.
The events are schedules on 0835Z every day and should appear to start on 1035 untill October 25th. From then on, it should appear to start from 0935.
Instead, the daylight saving "timezone switch" happens on October 19th, which is 1 week too early.
kind regards,
-- Steven

not confirmed on an intrepid installation and the hardy tzdata should be similar, can you run "zdump -v Europe/Brussels" and attach the log to the bug?
