This was originally reported at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdepim/+bug/310127

Steps to reproduce:
1) Set time zone to Europe/London (effectively UTC)
2) Create an event that runs from 2300 on day 1 to 0100 on day 2
3) The event is displayed correctly. In fact it displays as two parts labelled 1/2 and 2/2 at the correct times, which seems sensible to me.
4) Change timezone to America/Los Angeles. Settings > Configure KOrganiser > Time and Date
5) When presented with the dialog 'Keep Absolute Times' choose keep times
6) The result is that the same event now appears as two duplicate events on consecutive days.

The original reporter suggests that it is sufficient to create the
events in a non-UTC timezone. I just happen to be in a UTC timezone so
these are the steps I took. I'm not even completely sure if this is a
bug but the current way of displaying this seems counter intuitive at
least.

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have
been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug
still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of korganizer
(version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it
gets closed in about three months.
