Bug Description

If I activate Night Color in system settings and set "Activation time" to "Sunset to sunrise at current location", then Night Colour is active during the day. This happens both in Wayland and X. The displayed lattitude, longitude and times when Night Colour changes are correct. According to the transition times, Night Colour should not be on, but it turns on as soon as I click "Apply" and when starting Plasma.

If I instead use "Sunset to sunrise at manual location", this problem does not happen. When I "Detect Location" it gives me the same location as when I selected "current location", and I see the same transition times, but Night Color works properly.
