iceowl-extension 1.0b2 not compatible with icedove 3.0.11

2011-04-13 Thread Gilbert Sullivan
I have pure testing systems (no contrib or non-free, no closed source 
software / firmware).


This morning these upgrades (excerpted from the aptitude log)

[UPGRADE] calendar-google-provider 1.0~b1+dfsg2-2 - 1.0~b2-4
[UPGRADE] calendar-timezones 1.0~b1+dfsg2-2 - 1.0~b2-4
[UPGRADE] iceowl-extension 1.0~b1+dfsg2-2 - 1.0~b2-4

were offered and installed.

Now the calendar is no longer available in icedove. And the Add-ons 
dialog from Icedove indicates that iceowl-extension 1.0b2 and provider 
for Google calendar 0.7 are not compatible with icedove 3.0.11.


No kidding?

:-)

I can has my calendar back???

Heh. Seriously, I didn't see this coming, and we depend pretty heavily 
on our calendars. Has anyone heard any news about this?


Thanks,
Gilbert

AIUI, iceowl 1.0b1 works with icedove 3.0 and iceowl 1.0b2 works with 
icedove 3.1. I solved the same problem today by upgrading icedove to the 
3.1 version in unstable. I assume you could also solve it by downgrading 
iceowl to the 1.0b1 version from snapshot.debian.org.

Thanks. Both of those look like practical approaches.

I've been rolling along for a couple of years in testing just taking the 
upgrades as they come. So far, I've come across of few of these 
situations where upgrades for one package don't coincide properly with 
upgrades for another package, and a temporary loss of some functionality 
or another occurs as a result.


So far, just out of stubbornness and the desire to see how well and how 
quickly the package maintainers will work out the problems, I've 
resisted the temptation to stray away from simply using the testing 
repositories.


I suppose temporarily enabling the unstable repository and upgrading 
icedove is likely to be the course that deviates least from my 
preferences. I'll probably hold out a couple of days. If, by that time, 
icedove hasn't been upgraded in testing, I'll probably upgrade to 3.1.


At least this time around isn't as problematic as some of the gotchas 
I've seen this year with kernel mode setting and Xorg changes on the 
systems that have Nvidia and Intel graphics subsystems. But those could 
be temporarily worked around with configuration changes and without 
resorting to outside repositories.


Thank you again for your suggestions.

Best regards,
Gilbert
