We do not use the System Setting time zone values. Currently we retrieve the timezone info of a location online. I think this bug occurs only for certain locations. Mostly likely the issue is due to the way the time difference is calculated which is causing incorrect values. Qt 5.2 finally brings support for timezones. So all one has to do is mention the timezone ID like "Europe/Amsterdam" and it will automatically show the correct time after accounting for day light saving rules. However I am not sure when Qt 5.2 will be used in the Ubuntu SDK. Until then I need to come up with a temporary solution.
