Hi,
that's rather a bug in the backend. Calling with only_if_exists=false
might mean that the backend should create a new book/calendar, in case
it's not available yet. Otherwise, if you call with only_if_exists=true,
the backend should claim an error when the requested book/calendar
cannot be opened.
The logic in the backend's code seems to be inverted, from your
description.
Bye,
Milan
