See the previous postings on this mailing list.

If you use libical 3.0.15, try libical 3.0.14 or 3.0.16 instead.

[Evolution] Calendar not recognizing my timezone

2022-10-18 Thread Tim McConnell via evolution-list
Hi List, 
I'm on Debian testing (Bookworm) with Evolution version 3.46.0-2.
When I try to create a appointment or meeting via Evolution's Calendar
I get a message: 
"Failed to add timezone to “tmcconnell...@gmail.com :
tmcconnell...@gmail.com”

Could not add calendar time zone: Invalid object"
When I click save or save & close in the appointment or meeting. 

But if I go to Google Calendar itself I can add it just fine.
The Timezone is US Central or America-Chicago. I've also tried changing
the timezone to America- North Dakota-New_Salem and still get the
message. I don't get any abnormal stuff in GDB (I'm still trying to get
the stuff for the libsoup error) when it fails either, so no backtrace
yet. 

It was working and quit within the last couple of days.

Re: [Evolution] Wrong time zone shown on some events in calendar

Hi,
not really. I know of a regression in libical 3.0.15, but that's not
part of the Fedora and a fixed libical 3.0.16 will come soon.

The Fedora 36 did not update evolution* packages for some time now,
thus the only option is either some sort of local cache corruption or
some other package made an update, which confused the system. A
"tzdata" package comes on mind as one of the timezone related packages.

The timezone name you mentioned sounds like a Microsoft Exchange
timezone. I would verify that the timezone used in the Evolution is an
expected time zone (it should, but just in case). Then you can try to
move away (not delete) ~/.cache/evolution/calendar/ directory and then
execute from a terminal:

   evolution --force-shutdown

which will stop also the background processes and then next time you
open the calendar it'll download the events into its local cache from
scratch, maybe fixing the cache content this hard way. Whether it'll
help or not I do not know. If it'll be worse, then return back the
moved directory from the above and do the force shutdown again, to
return back to where it was.

Bye,
Milan

[Evolution] Wrong time zone shown on some events in calendar

2022-10-18 Thread Vincent Hennebert via evolution-list
Hello,

Evolution 3.44.4 on Fedora 36.

Today Evolution has suddenly started to show some events shifted on my
calendar. It’s a local ics calendar stored on my file system.

I see the following in the ics:

    DTSTART;TZID=Eastern Standard Time:20210629T083000
    DTEND;TZID=Eastern Standard Time:20210629T095000

Yet when I open it in the UI the Time zone field contains ‘Dublin,
Edinburgh,Lisbon, London’, which is not even my system time zone
(CEST). So the event is showing up 5h too early on my calendar.

Not all events are wrong though. I have one in the ‘(UTC-08:00) Pacific
Time (US & Canada)’ that’s showing up at the right time in the UI.

Any idea of what’s going on?

Thanks,
Vincent

Hi,
it depends on your Evolution version:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788192

and whether you want to open an exact message from an exact folder of
an exact account (not a directory on the disk), or just a message with
a certain Message-ID header, wherever it's found first.

Bye,
Milan

Hi,
it is possible, but it requires manual editing of the corresponding
.source file under ~/.config/evolution/sources/ to set the
[Authentication] "Method" to "Google" (quotes for clarity only).

What you really need is a newer Evolution, which does this on its own,
because the OAuth2 process changed on the Google side as well, which
requires code changes, not only data changes. If your distro doesn't
provide any newer version and you cannot upgrade to a newer version of
your distro, which provides latest Evolution (and all other software),
then you can try to install Evolution as a Flatpak, from
https://flathub.org . It has its limitations, but it allows you to run
the latest software under ancient distros.

Bye,
Milan

Try looking at this answer from Milan:

 https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2022-August/msg00026.html

I have a feeling that the best way to set it up is using File -> New ->
Collection account, but it may be that your Evolution version doesn't
support the changed Google interface yet.

Re: [Evolution] Trouble with gnome evolution

2022-10-18 Thread Philippe Lefèvre

Hi all,

Thank you Pete for your reply.

I apologize for my incomplete description.

When I use "Contacts - Evolution" (using type: Google), I get this error

Invalid request URI or header, or unsupported non standard parameter:
Contacts API is being deprecated. Migrate to People API to retain 
programmatic access to Google Contacts


I read the mails from the links you shared at 
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2021-November/msg00155.html
So, I understand Google Contacts is no more directly usable and I have 
to add my Google AdressBook as a CardDav into Evolution.

But I never get it working.
I use :
Type: CardDav
Name: CardDav
URL: 
https://www.googleapis.com/carddav/v1/principals/my_email_adr...@gmail.com

User: my_email_adr...@gmail.com

am I doing something wrong ?

Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
Philippe

Hi all,

I just started using Gnome Evolution 3.38.3-1 on Debian 11 to replace 
my thunderbird installation.
Everything works well so far but I can't use my Contacts book (and 
only this) located at Google.

I tried what is explained at :
https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/contacts-google.html.en
with no success but I was recently told that this page is outdated for 
quite a long time.


Is this a known issue I could resolve on my side? Do I use a bad 
config parameter?


Thanks for any help, advise...
Regards,
Philippe
