DTS not respected in Fedora 35 EET zone

[Alexander Kostadinov]

Hi, since Saturday (when summer time applied) laptop shows one hour
behind for easter european time zone. What's wrong?

LANG=bg_BG.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
LC_MONETARY=en_IE.utf8
LC_TELEPHONE=bg_BG.utf8

Any ideas?

This might help.

Perhaps your time is UTC instead of local, and is thus not changing
with the local time zone setting?

There is also man timedatectl with information about how to adjust the
time.

At least you would have to show what you get with the "date" command.

Thanks a lot! I knew there was a `timedatectl` but couldn't figure out
its name and thought normal environment variables will show what I
need.

It turned out my timezone was set to Africa/Cairo which is also listed
as EET. But setting the correct timezone fixed the issue.

I don't know how this happened. I wonder if there was some change with
Fedora 35 because before upgrading to it, I'm sure DTS worked. And I'm
also sure that I didn't change my timezone. Which doesn't mean there
isn't a 1% chance I did something very strange without remembering.
But I tend to believe this happened on its own.

None of these setting affect the time zone.
Use the timedatectl command to show the time zone and change it as required.
