How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. $ qemu-kvm -m 1024 -hda f18-test-2.img -cdrom ~/xfr/fedora/F18/F18-Alpha/RC3/Fedora-18-Alpha-x86_64-netinst.iso -vga qxl -boot menu=on

Additional info:

I'm not sure authoritative this map is, but it is very readable at full resolution:

Saint Petersburg, Russia, cannot be selected as a location.

Clicking San Luis, Argentina, selects the region "America/Argentina/San_Luis", but the time zone highlighted in green does not include it. The correct time zone is highlighted when Mendoza, Argentina, which is slightly to the west of San Luis, is selected. Argentina is in one time zone (UTC-3), so the highlighted time zone should be the same for both.

This appears to be an authoritative reference for time zones:

We are using the same map widget as gnome-control-center. Please see

Thanks for pointing that out.

Both of the bugs reported above can be reproduced in F17 with:
control-center-3.4.2-1.fc17.x86_64

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 08:54:16 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2014-02-05 12:14:04 UTC
Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
