[Bug 1194925] Re: DST not handled correctly

[James Page]

Hi Kasper

As this is an older bug report (on 12.04) and suds has been updated to
the 0.7 release I'm going to mark this bug as 'Invalid'; if you still
see this issue with the latest suds package version in Ubuntu 17.10,
please set back to new and confirm that this is still an issue.

Thanks!

Title:
  DST not handled correctly

Status in suds package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  suds.sax.date.Timezone uses time.timezone as the offset from UTC.
  However documentation of time.timezone states:

  The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC
  (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the
  UK).

  So using time.timezone that way only works half the year. The result
  is that when a datetime is used in a SOAP call, the value in the
  request contains the correctly formatted local time followed by an
  incorrect specification of which time zone was used. For example
  2013-06-26 16:05:58.887627 CEST was rendered in the SOAP request as
  2013-06-26T16:05:58.887627+01:00, which is incorrect as CEST is
  +02:00.
