Hi list,

Can somebody please explain the behaviour of
calendar:local_time_to_universal_time_dst/1 when timezone is set to
UTC (used with ubuntu 8.04 and Erlang R11)? This issue was not
observed when timezone is set to EDT.

In R12, it returns universal time correctly, but return is duplicated
with R11. Please find sample output below.

Regards,

Ahmed
