So what you want is "one way synchronization". That's doable. But
synchronizing multiple calendars is not possible because the phone only
supports one calendar. By default, SyncEvolution will synchronize the
first calendar it finds, which typically is the "Personal" one.

There is a feature request to merge calendars on-the-fly, but it hasn't
been implemented.

Not sure what that means. Doesn't seem to cause known problems.

There is a known issue about statistics for "calendar+todo", which this
one is about.

Your sync-ui is talking to an old version of syncevo-dbus-server.

You are installing from syncevolution.org, so you should install
"syncevolution-evolution", and nothing else. Please uninstall
"syncevolution", "sync-ui", "syncevolution-evolution", then reinstall
"syncevolution-evolution". You should get 1.1.1 now.

Before starting the sync-ui, make sure that syncevo-dbus-server is not
running. In shell, do "killall syncevo-dbus-server".
