Title:
  Event reminders stored in UTC but triggered in local timezone

Status in Ubuntu Calendar App:
  Fix Released
Status in qtorganizer5-eds package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ click list | grep
  com.ubuntu.calendarcom.ubuntu.calendar	0.4.502
  phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$
  system-image-cli -i
  current build number: 4
  device name: mako
  channel: ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09
  last update: 2014-10-08 09:47:10
  version version: 4
  version ubuntu: 20141007
  version device: 20140929.1
  version custom: mako-0.5

  When creating events with reminders at "Event time", the reminder is
  stored in UTC, but triggered in local time. I first noticed this when
  creating events in BST (UTC+0100).

  STR:

   - Set device timezone to something other than GMT/UTC.
   - Open Calendar
   - From the actions mention, select New Event
   - Fill in some basics - time /date, event name, location, reminder at "Event time"..
   - Save the event
   - Wait until the alotted time, and observe the absence of a reminder.

  Setting my timezone to SAST (UTC+0200) and adding an event 5 minutes
  into the future, no reminder fired. However, changing the date to 2h5m
  into the future, the reminder fired 2h before the event. So it looks like
  the reminder is being *stored* in UTC, but *fired* in local time.
  Here is the entry from ~/.local/share/evolution/calendar/system/calendar.ics:
