From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041203 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: In calendar mode, select 'View / Current View / Define Views...'. Then, select a view and click 'Edit...'. Another dialog should come up that allows you to edit the view. Instead, nothing happens. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.0.2-8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: see description Additional info:
Looks like only Table views can be edited, the various other types can't be edited. So it looks like the Edit button should be made insensitive for these types.
The dialog in question is in the libgal2 package: gal/menus/gal-define-views-dialog.c I tried a patch, but it looks like we need to add a new vtable entry for GalViewClass: "is_editable" and patch libgal2 and evolution accordingly; an ABI change.
(fixed in evolution-2.5.2-1, probably earlier) * This problem will be resolved in a future major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Red Hat does not currently plan to provide a resolution for this in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux update for currently deployed systems. With the goal of minimizing risk of change for deployed systems, and in response to customer and partner requirements, Red Hat takes a conservative approach when evaluating changes for inclusion in maintenance updates for currently deployed products. The primary objectives of update releases are to enable new hardware platform support and to resolve critical defects.
