[Bug 990493] Re: After suspend+resume, date in menu bar is incorrect

 

Ok, I've read the rules and so even it seems strange, it is correct for
this bug not to be fixed on 12.04. Question is what a security flaw or
regression is in this case, as people's action based on wrong date
information may be harmful. On the other side, it is no threat to the
security of the computer system itself.

So we keep going with wrong dates for another year :-)

Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  indicator-datetime 0.3.94-0ubuntu2, Ubuntu 12.04

  - Fake the date as 11:55 PM
  - Suspend system
  - Resume 10 minutes later
  - Date won't be updated in the unity top bar.

  For example:
  - Booted system on 4/27/12
  - System repeatedly taken in and out of suspend
  - System placed in suspend around 4/27/12 11:30 PM
  - System resumed fom suspend 4/28/12 9:00 AM
  - When clicking the time in the unity top bar, date says "Friday, 27 April 2012"
  - When running "date" from command line, date says "Sat Apr 28"
