Public bug reported:
The time in the datetime indicator freezes when you change the timezone.
To reproduce:
1) Note the current time in the datetime indicator
2) Change the system timezone, such as by clicking a different timezone in the
datetime indicator menu or changing timezone in the date/time system settings
app
Expected results:
The clock in the datetime indicator updates to show the current time in the new
timezone. The clock continues to function normally, updating the minutes/hours
as time progresses
Actual results:
The clock in the datetime indicator freezes. It does not update to the new
timezone and no longer updates the minutes/hours - it stays frozen at the time
it displayed when you updated the timezone.
The system time is not affected; running 'date' from a terminal displays
the correct time. The menu in the datetime indicator will display the
correct time. It's just the clock in the panel that is broken.
This is 100% reproducible on my system.
