[Bug 1043860] Re: Manual setting of time and date has no effect on the clock present on the desktop

 

This is ameliorated in 14.04, but still present.

indicator-datetime updates its display at least once per minute, so the
click Akhila mentioned in comment #5 isn't necessary anymore.

However, it still doesn't update immediately when the user changes the
time manually. org.freedesktop.timedate1 provides a mechanism for
setting the time, but doesn't appear to have a signal notifying when
it's been set. I'm not what the Right Way is to listen for manual time
changes here...?
