Yes, I've seen this reported before in KDE bug tracking. There is an issue with time calculations in both that I haven't been able to pin down. I think Eric found issues with 0.5 days are added under some circumstances but might lead to this.

Any idea on the root cause for this? It probably affects other areas of KStars as well.
