#4805: mythfilldatabse does not interpret time offset correctly.

Priority: minor | Milestone: unknown
Component: mythfilldatabase | Version: 0.20.2
Severity: medium | Mlocked: 0
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
During my install of Fedora 8 on my MythTV box I chose to set the time
zone as GMT-6 instead of choosing by Country/City (Chicago for CST) this
causes 'date' to report the date and time with GMT-6 for the time zone
instead of CST.
I'm not sure how mythfilldatabase finds the time zone offset but changing
to Chicago (CST) fixed the problem.
With GMT-6 as the time offset the EPG would report the correct current
time but all the data was offset by +12 hours (i.e. the correct program
would show in the EPG data as 12 hours in the future).
It is my assumption that mythfilldatabase somehow thought the offset
should be +6 instead of -6 which would give the 12 hour difference.
