Hi Folks,
My Guix System is configured with (timezone "Australia/Melbourne") which
is reflected by the `date` command as well as the Gnome clock.
$ date
Wed May 15 23:03:34 AEST 2019
In Evolution though, all my calendar events show up in UTC time, so I
have appointments showing up at eg. 1am.
When I go to Edit, Preferences, Calendar and Task, General, under
timezone it says:
[x] Use system time (UTC)
The timezone can be overridden manually by unchecking the box and selecting at
timezone, which fixes the problem but shouldn't be necessary.
For what it's worth, the Gnome 3 notifications that show when you click on the
Gnome clock are in the correct timezone.
Regards,
Ben

Marius B. advised that the Evolution timezone issue was addressed in
2a80d9e55299214a3f0b4f585767b4c81c9d5c7d. I hadn't noticed, but can
confirm that my times are now showing up perfectly in Evolution and
Gnome Calendar, yay thanks! Epiphany is also showing the correct
timezone now for me with `new Date().getTimezoneOffset()`.

IceCat and Chromium are still showing UTC for me, so that issue is
clearly not directly related to the now fixed Evolution issue. Will
close this bug report since it's about Evolution.
