Sigh. I misfiled the version, and made an error in the bug as well; I'm not sure that pointing it at evolution-webcal works either, since that doesn't work for local files. Either way, evolution-2.0 is definitely not the solution that you're looking for :) Removed the following (broken) mappings in shared-mime-info for rawhide. * Tue Aug 21 2007 - Bastien Nocera <bnocera> - 0.22-2 - Don't say that webcal files are handled by evolution-2.0, it can't - Disable vCard mapping as well, as evolution doesn't handle it (See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309073) Reassigning to evolution-webcal. It should install a .desktop file advertising the webcal mime-types, and only handle URLs, so that clicking on a link in a browser does the right thing. I can click on this link [1] in my browser and Evolution asks me if I want to subscribe to the calendar and then proceeds to add it to my Calendar component. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the problem but what aspect of this is not working? [1] webcal://engineering.redhat.com//program/rhel/rhel-5-2-0/rhel-5-2-0-event.ics I guess Bugzilla doesn't recognize webcal URLs, but I can still go to [1] and click the "GNOME" link to subscribe. I'm using Fedora 7 with the Rawhide Evolution packages: evolution-2.11.90-3.fc8 evolution-webcal-2.10.0-1.fc8 [1] http://engineering.redhat.com/products.php/rhel/5/.2 Matthew, that works for "webcal://" type URLs, but doesn't for "http://" (when we get a mime-type, etc.) If you use webcal://, it will use the default URI handler for webcal from GConf, and not do anything based on the mime-type. Either click: http://engineering.redhat.com//program/rhel/rhel-5-2-0/rhel-5-2-0-event.ics Or download it locally and double-click. Okay I see, thanks for clarifying Bastien. Sounds like this should be moved upstream. I did find this two-year-old upstream bug, but it kinda looks like dobey stonewalled it. Thoughts? http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=320865 Sorry for lag, my account was disabled. I guess there are two bugs here: (1) evo-as-packaged-in-fedora/RHEL doesn't even try to load, since it points at evolution-2.0, which doesn't exist. That should be fixed to point at something else; probably evolution-webcal. (2) evolution-webcal should probably work, but doesn't; that is upstream 320865. Okay so it looks like Bastien already handled part (1) and even pinged the upstream bug. Any objection to me moving the remainder upstream? Oh, I missed that. (1) bad bastien- retitle the bug if you think it is now a different bug ;) (2) all things considered, yeah, I guess the bug should be closed. Shame it can't actually be fixed without smacking upstream about the head. If Bastien or someone can suggest a reasonable workaround, I'm up for maintaining it in Fedora/RHEL until upstream is, well, smacked. I myself am not wise in these matters. In the meantime, closing this as UPSTREAM. |
