Bug#1011241: kodi: Unable to change timezone (Kodi only uses system’s timezone)
Hi Johan!
I fixed the issue! It requires two patches to address two components of the same problem:
First is incompletely backported CPosixTimeZone::Init which in upstream reads zone.tab
from an embedded resource add-on "resource.timezone". In Debian, however, we use system
tzdata and supplementary files.
Second is the ultimate usage of date::current_zone in xbmc/XBDateTime.cpp.
I built Kodi v20 Alpha1 with the new patchset and now both timezone settings are active
and wall clock reflect the timezone change.
I am now fixing another bunch of failed tests for v20. After I complete them I push the fixes to Salsa
experimental branch. I can also upload v20 or v19 prebuilt for sandbox testing.--
