            Bug ID: 453809
           Summary: kalendarac does not pick up timezone changes unless
                    restarted
           Product: Reminder Daemon
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kishore96 at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
If the computer's timezone is changed by the user, kalendarac does not pick up
the change without a reboot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set an event to start at some particular time A in a timezone T (different
from your current timezone), and set a notification to be shown at event start.
2. In System Settings > Regional Settings > Date and Time > timezone, set your
computer's timezone to T and apply changes
3. Wait for the time A to arrive.

OBSERVED RESULTS
No reminder is shown at the configured time. However, the reminder is shown at
the correct time if the computer is rebooted between steps 2 and 3.

EXPECTED RESULTS
kalendarac should be able to handle timezone changes without reboots, since,
e.g., the user may want to change their computer's timezone while travelling.
