[Bug 979287] Re: Can't add 'other locations' for clock in 12.04 and 12.10

Is there a way to start the location selector from the command line? I thought this might be a way of finding out what's broken. Or maybe there are some logs somewhere? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Also, as per my question here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+question/222376 it is not possible to add a timezone without a location, such as UTC, PTS etc. Terms such as these often append times for internet appointments such as Ubuntu on Air and G+

I believe I have the same issue, but with a twist? (I am sorry if this is the wrong place for filing this - this is my first time...) Can't add specific 'other locations' for clock in 12.10. When trying to add Singapore, a list shows up that allows me to choose between Singapore, South Africa

[Bug 979287] Re: Can't add 'other locations' for clock in 12.04

I have been experiencing this exact problem since upgrading to 12.04. A number of times I have attempted to add a few international locations that I routinely like to reference but abandoned the task after realising that it doesn't work. Tonight if finally annoyed me enough to google the problem.

Charles, 1. click clock in unity-2d-panel 2. 'Time and date settings' 3. tab 'Clock' 4. button 'Choose Locations...' 5. green 'plus' button 6. type 'Sydney' 7. wait... nothing happens 8. press enter... nothing happens Again, this GUI is quite unable to tell you if anything is going wrong, or not

[Bug 979287] Re: Can't add 'other locations' for clock in 12.04

John, I'm not seeing this behavior. When I type Sydney in as a new Location, I get a dropdown showing me posible matches. (See attached screenshot) So the next step is to figure out whether the problem you're seeing is an issue with the location database like you guessed, or perhaps an interface
