Description Viktor S 2009-12-02 19:10:31 UTC 
As description says; setting the digital clock to showing both the year and day
of week results in the digital clock flickering really fast between two layouts
of display as shown in the screenshots here:

It happens extremely fast and of course makes this setting impossible. Setting
the options individually does not reproduce the problem as seen here:

This problem was not present with 4.3.3 and QT 4.5.3 but started appearing
after my upgrade to 4.3.4 and QT 4.6.

Bug also filed upstream, see URL.

Reproducible: Always

Resolved since. UPSTREAM.

Should be noted that it's solved for 4.4 and 4.6.1, not sure about the combination used when I first filed the bug.
