[Bug 1371390] [NEW] pictures taken with camera have wrong timestamp

 

Public bug reported:

krillin rtm build 46

- phone is set for Eastern time zone (utc -4)
- take a picture with the camera
- apt-get install exiv2 onto the phone
- cd ~/Pictures/com.ubuntu.camera
- exiv2 <imagename>.jpg

Expected results:
Image Timestamp in meta data should match the local time on the phone, with TZ offset applied

Actual results:
Image Timestamp is 6 hours ahead of my timezone

The problem with this is the gallery app uses the timestamps found in
the exiv data to display events, so a photos are showing up on the
incorrect day
