RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Currently changing Units in Properties of weather calendar take no effect until restart.

The change is propagated either on the next start of the evolution-calendar-factory, or when the weather calendar is refreshed (which also involves the full close and open of it - multiple processes can have that backend open, that's why I mentioned the full close and open).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-3.12.11-15.el7
evolution-data-server-3.12.11-24.el7

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add new weather calendar
2. Select the calendar and open its Properties
3. Change Units to st. else.
4. Check your calendar

Actual results:
The weather calendars still shows old Units

Expected results:
Calendar properly updates Units

Additional info:

It didn't work for the location changes too. I fixed it upstream for 3.19.1/3.18.1 with commit [1]. From the commit message:

   With this, either the Location or the temperature Unit change will cause
   refresh of the calendar and will show the values as being requested without
   require of the backend close and open. This is doing full refresh, aka
   talks to the server, thus it works only when being online. When being
   offline, or the weather server being unreachable, shows stale data anyway,
   thus it might be fine.

The talk to the server also means that the change is not propagated immediately, but only after the server returns the data (there's a little lag). Thus please count with it.
