Description Marc Milgram 2011-01-19 16:47:31 UTC
Description of problem:
I have two versions of each of my calendars - a Webcal version, and a Caldav version.  The Webcal versions are all disabled.  I received email with an appointment cancellation.  Evolution reported, "Found appointment in the calendar", and listed a Webcal calendar that I currently have disabled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.28.3-10.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:
Seems to be

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure Caldav access to a calendar
2. Configure Webdav access to the same calendar
3. Disable Webdav access to the calendar
4. Make sure that a completely separate (Caldav?) calendar is the default calendar.
5. Receive and accept an appointment invitation
6. Receive an appointment cancelation for the appointment

Actual results:
Evolution shows that it found the appointment in the Webdav Calendar

Expected results:
Evolution shows that it found the calendar in the Caldav calendar

Sort of NotABug, it searches in all configured calendars, or in those setup in Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences->tab Calendar and Tasks, section "Conflict search". I  believe it's correct to not take into account sources checked in the Calendar view, because it's just your current view on your calendars, which might not reflect your needs on meeting invitation lookup.

What about skipping read-only calendars? Though you can have there a meeting scheduled and as not an organizer you may not update the meeting anyway.

Other option would be to always use only calendars checked for conflict searching and never all configured calendars?

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-04 01:52:18 UTC
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Upstream fix to not check read-only calendars:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=616561

It cannot be backported as such (it landed in time for 3.4.0), it's just for a reference what the current upstream code uses.
