Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
If you use a non-monospace font for the system (which is the standard) after the clock changes in any significant way, it will drift further and further to the left. It may correct itself over time, but that space becomes an eyesore.
If you wait until enough space has grown, you can correct it by right-clicking on the panel (which will force it to adjust its width), but why not just adjust the width periodically? Alternatively, it would be nice if the text was centered or in some other way permitted to use markup rather than being stuck left-justified.

Thanks for your bug. It looks like the same issue than bug #42772. Marking as duplicate, feel free to reopen if you think that's wrong
