[Bug 1360554] Re: cannot change time zone

[Martin Pitt]

For the record, this is still working fine for me on mako and the
emulator. Barry confirmed that calling timedatectl works, but he called
it as root. So for someone who can reproduce this: Please try calling
timedatectl as user phablet (in phablet-shell) and see whether that
works. If that's working, but the UI isn't working, it's clearly an UI
problem; if timedatectl succeeds as root/with sudo but fails as phablet,
it's probably bug 1365886 (polkit issue). If it fails as user and root,
then something in the krillin partitioning layout might be different and
breaking the /etc/writable-files/ bits. But that's unlikely as it's
obviously working sometimes/for other people, so it smells a lot more
like a race condition.

So in summary I think this is bug 1365886, but confirmation would be
good.

Title:
  cannot change time zone

Status in “systemd” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Changing time zone seems broken.

  What you expected to happen
  Searching for 'Bergen' and selecting 'Bergen, Hordaland, Norway', should give me feedback that something had happened, and the time zone should change.

  What happened instead
  Selecting 'Bergen, Hordaland, Norway' only made the item grey, but nothing else happened. And the time zone remained unchanged if I navigated back.
