737865 – Accepting invitation of event in Evolution doesn't change its state in Zimbra

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.

proposed evo patch

for evolution;

Evolution 3.0.3 provides a user email entry for a CalDAV calendar, which is used to add the attendee in a response for cases when it's missing. The 2.28.3 doesn't have it, and it adds an empty attendee with no address, which seems to be filtered out before the component is put through CalDAV backend to the server, as mine tests shows this empty attendee being added into the event.

This is the most I can do with 2.28.3 unless breaking too many things around CalDAV calendar setup. This ensures that there will never be used the empty address, but the default mail address is used for cases when the attendee wasn't found. The right fix will come to RHEL7.

Comment 7 Suzanne Logcher 2012-02-14 23:15:19 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. 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. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

Comment 8 David Jaša 2012-02-15 09:45:25 UTC

Hi Suzanne, I ask you to revisit the decision as patch is ready and it pre-tested by me (I use scratch build of evolution with this patch applied without problems). Thank you

Comment 10 RHEL Program Management 2012-12-14 07:08:30 UTC

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
