Bug Description
To reproduce the problem, do the following:
* Create an appointment using Evolution that starts on a date during daylight saving time, e.g. lunch break 12-13, with daily repetition forever.
* Save it and sync with Office 365
* Watch out for time changes when daylight saving time ends.
In Evolution Calendar, the lunch break is still 12-13 during the winter (no daylight saving time)
Looking at the same calendar using Office 365 (online), the times change to 11-12 as daylight saving time ends.
It's hard to tell which software is doing it right. But it's certainly a source of confusion.
