[Bug 786471] Re: Time and Date: Can't add location

 

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop ISO of the
development release - Trusty Tahr. It would help us greatly if you could
test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of
Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at
http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your
help.

Title:
  Time and Date: Can't add location

Status in The Date and Time Indicator:
  Incomplete
Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Click clock on Unity panel and choose "Time & Date Settings..."
  2. On the clock tab, hit "Choose Locations."
  3. Try to add a location. Possibly fail and get an error icon. Locations known to fail (all in the US): Albuquerque, Denver (even though there's a time zone called "America/Denver"), Chicago (even though "America/Chicago" is the name of a time zone).
  4. Try to enter a time zone name: America/Denver. It also fails with the same error icon.
  5. Try some random small town such as Moriarty, New Mexico or Mount Pleasant, Texas. It works.
  6. Dig the data source URL out of the source: "http://geoname-lookup.ubuntu.com/?query=%s&release=%s&lang=%s";. It returns the expected data for all cases tried.

  I've reproduced this bug in three Natty environments: the live USB, a
  fresh install, and an upgraded machine.
