Package: davical
Version: 1.1.1-1
Severity: serious

I mark this as serious because DAViCal no longer interoperates with
Evolution, the default contact/calendar client in Debian

Evolution submits a vCard to DAViCal with a REV field like this:

    REV:"d3b07384d113edec49eaa6238ad5ff00"

In the RFCs it suggests it should be a time value and that Evolution may
be at fault:

     http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2426#section-3.6.4
     https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6350#section-6.7.4

DAViCal tries to put it in a timestamp column in PostgreSQL, where it is
rejected:

Query: QF: SQL error "22007" - ERROR: invalid input syntax for type
timestamp with time zone:  .......

Query: QF: UPDATE caldav_data SET caldav_data=:dav_data, dav_etag=:etag,
logged_user=:session_user, modified=:modified, user_no=:user_no,
caldav_type='VCARD' WHERE dav_name=:dav_name



If this is a fault in evolution, please confirm and reassign the bug there

If clients are behaving like this, however, should DAViCal support them in some 
way?

Confirmed as an upstream bug in Evolution:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704740


I've tested the patch on wheezy and it resolves the issue for me.
