I bet the Ubuntu package was built without libical support... yes, that's the problem: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libsynthesis0 Without libical, libsynthesis doesn't know any of the Olsen TZIDs and falls back to matching by GMT offset, which works less well. I filed bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libsynthesis/+bug/509032 Debian is also affected. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter. _______________________________________________ SyncEvolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.syncevolution.org/listinfo/syncevolution
