Bug Description

Each time I've booted Ubuntu since upgrading to gutsy the system clock has jumped forward 13 hours. Presumably clock-setup assumes my system clock is set to UTC and then sets it to local time, but then next time I boot clock-setup still thinks the clock is in UTC even though it set it to local time last time. If I don't reset my clock every time I use my computer I end up with my clock whole days out very quickly. Also, none of the graphical tools for setting the clock even launch so I'm stuck with "sudo date -s" which means I can't use sudo for another 13 hours and am forced to use su if I want to do anything as root.
