Created attachment 1671078 [details] Default applications Description of problem: The Calendar application is not displayed as default calendar application in GNOME Settings on latest Fedora 32 Beta. Text Editor is displayed there instead. See the attached screenshot. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-calendar-3.36.0-1.fc32.x86_64 gnome-control-center-3.36.0-2.fc32.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open GNOME Settings. 2. Switch to "Default applications". Actual results: "Text Editor" is the only default calendar application available. Expected results: "Calendar" is the default calendar application.
The default calendar application option changes the handler for ICS calendar files. (Also, afaik, it does nothing else.) Since Gnome Calendar doesn't handle ICS files, upstream devs don't think it's appropriate to offer it as a default calendar application in Gnome Settings. Perhaps the real bug is offering a "default calendar app" when it really means "default ICS file handler"? Upstream has several closed bugs discussing the issue, e.g.: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/337 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/804 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/375 The upstream bug for handling ICS files is https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/5
I am closing this ticket since this is a well known upstream issue.
