[Bug 1318425] Re: The time shown in the Unity panel does not update anymore

 

No, the stuck time is being shown repeatedly:

magherus@spock: ~ $  gdbus call --session --dest com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service.Desktop --object-path /com/canonical/Unity/Panel/Service --method com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service.SyncOne 'com.canonical.indicator.datetime'
([('com.canonical.indicator.datetime', '0x1635710', 'indicator-datetime', 'Mon May 12 17:41:12', true, true, uint32 0, '', true, false, 1480)],)
magherus@spock: ~ $  gdbus call --session --dest com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service.Desktop --object-path /com/canonical/Unity/Panel/Service --method com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service.SyncOne 'com.canonical.indicator.datetime'
([('com.canonical.indicator.datetime', '0x1635710', 'indicator-datetime', 'Mon May 12 17:41:12', true, true, uint32 0, '', true, false, 1480)],)

Title:
  The time shown in the Unity panel does not update anymore

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After upgrading Ubuntu to 14.04 I noticed that the time is often not
  updating in Unity.

  The output of the date command is correct and updating. I also have
  automatic time update configured in the time settings.

  If I kill the indicator-datetime-service process the time indicator
  updates to the right value, then it changes seconds once or twice, but
  then it immediately freezes again.

  I connected to it using strace but it seems frozen.

  While frozen, the time and date settings will not appear while opened
  from the time and date applet. The time is correct inside the multi-
  timezone view.

  My settings can be seen in the screenshot attached to this bug. I can
  provide more debugging information upon request.

  I am running:

  Ubuntu 14.04

  unity:
    Installed: 7.2.0+14.04.20140423-0ubuntu1.2
    Candidate: 7.2.0+14.04.20140423-0ubuntu1.2

  indicator-datetime:
    Installed: 13.10.0+14.04.20140415.3-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 13.10.0+14.04.20140415.3-0ubuntu1
