Description of problem: Recurring google calendar meeting set for 0930-1000 US/Pacific time on Tuesdays and Thursdays, set up by user located in Singapore, displays in Lightning as same time but on Wednesdays and Fridays. Meeting displays correctly on the web calendar view on Google. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.9-1.fc22 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. .sg user sets up meeting, recurring, Tue+Thu, 0930-1000 US/Pacific 2. Sync calendar in Lightning. 3. Meeting displays for Wed/Fri, but otherwise "correct" time, in Lightning. Actual results: Correct time, date offset by one. Expected results: Correct time and date. Additional info: thunderbird-lightning-gdata-1.9-1.fc22.x86_64 installed via dnf, not from addons.mozilla.org.
This is part of the main thunderbird package now. You also will get more help if you file upstream: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided#h=dupes|Calendar And you might check this list first: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=%3Acalendar%20google&list_id=12506634
The version in F22 seems to be several releases behind the latest upstream btw.
We package whatever upstream puts into the now combined TB/Lightning releases so that's in their court.
