From: nljlistbox2 <at> gmail.com (N. Jackson) To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 25.1; display-time-world seems to ignore zoneinfo-style-world-list when display-time-mode is t Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:50:53 -0300
The command display-time-world seems to be ignoring the
zoneinfo-style-world-list variable; instead, the time for the default
list of cities is displayed.
Setting zoneinfo-style-world-list in `emacs -Q' works as expected, so I
bisected my init file and it seems that the problem is "caused" by
setting display-time-mode to show the clock in the mode line.
This recipe shows the problem from `emacs -Q'
0. emacs -Q
1. Enter the following elisp in *scratch*:
(custom-set-variables
'(display-time-mode t)
'(zoneinfo-style-world-list
(quote
(("Etc/UTC" "Universal Time")
("AST4ADT" "Atlantic Time")
("EST5EDT" "Eastern Time")
("Europe/London" "London")
("Asia/Tokyo" "Tokyo")))))
2. `C-x C-e' (eval-last-sexp) to run it
3. `M-x display-time-world'
Observed result:
Seattle Tuesday 23 August 04:22 PDT
New York Tuesday 23 August 07:22 EDT
London Tuesday 23 August 12:22 BST
Paris Tuesday 23 August 13:22 CEST
Bangalore Tuesday 23 August 16:52 IST
Tokyo Tuesday 23 August 20:22 JST
Expected result:
Universal Time Tuesday 23 August 11:24 UTC
Atlantic Time Tuesday 23 August 08:24 ADT
Eastern Time Tuesday 23 August 07:24 EDT
London Tuesday 23 August 12:24 BST
Tokyo Tuesday 23 August 20:24 JST
If the recipe above is modified to remove the line that sets
display-time-mode, the output is as expected.
I'm more than slightly confused by what I'm observing here. I don't
believe it was more than a couple of months ago that I set z-s-w-l for
the first time. It worked perfectly then even though I always have d-t-m
on (because the mode line clock is the one I use to know what time it is
during the day). But now I'm seeing the reported problem in versions of
the Emacs 25 pre-release going back for months, and indeed, in Emacs
24.5.
