Bug Description

Indicator-datetime lists events to take place one day ahead e.g. all day event on Monday is listed to be happen on Sunday

Also this scenario also happens for today's date. Foe example;

1. Create a full-day-event in any previous day (2nd june 2017)
2. Click 2nd june on calendar
3. Full-day event is listed there.

But it doesn't work for today's date. (DTSTART == DTEND)

1. Create a full-day-event on today.
2. Click today on calendar
3. Full-day event is NOT listed there.
4. Click previous day.....and you will find full-day event listed there
5. It even shows today's date on side but just doesn't list the event on today's date.

Note: This is reproducible for any event when DTSTART == DTEND (i.e Events from Google Calendar)

What is the output of 'locale' specifically LC_TIME ?

Does the event show correctly in gnome-calendar and in evolution?

This is reproducible on 16.04, 17.04 & 17.10

For 16.04 there was a patch which fixes the issue for me (https://launchpadlibrarian.net/206123315/upcoming-after-end.patch) but since then indicator-datetime code changed significantly and the patch is not valid anymore.

What is the output of 'locale' specifically LC_TIME ?

LANG=en_IN
LANGUAGE=en_IN:en
LC_CTYPE="en_IN"
LC_NUMERIC="en_IN"
LC_TIME="en_IN"
LC_COLLATE="en_IN"
LC_MONETARY="en_IN"
LC_MESSAGES="en_IN"
LC_PAPER="en_IN"
LC_NAME="en_IN"
LC_ADDRESS="en_IN"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_IN"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_IN"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_IN"
LC_ALL=

I believe bug #1261191 was for only online calendars and it was fixed in bug #1302004
