Package: evolution Version: 3.2.2-1+b1 Severity: important There is an important evolution upstream bug here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675595
A good description of the issue is discussed here: http://code.google.com/p/sabredav/issues/detail?id=213 In short, Evolution 3.2.2 inserts extra backslash characters into a string sent to the caldav server. This results in the Evolution user being unable to modify calendar events. This pretty much makes the calendar unusable. Although upstream has since fixed the issue, it still exists in the Debian version. It is quite important that the upstream fix either be incorporated in Debian's version or that Debian move to the fixed version. Otherwise, the next release will happen with broken caldav support. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-2-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages evolution depends on: ii dbus 1.5.12-1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.43 ii evolution-common 3.2.2-1 ii evolution-data-server 3.2.2-3 ii gconf-service 3.2.5-1 ii gconf2 3.2.5-1 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.4.0-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-32 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.2-1 ii libcairo2 1.12.2-1 ii libcamel-1.2-29 3.2.2-3 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.28-4 ii libcanberra0 0.28-4 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.10.4-3 ii libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 1.2.0-2 ii libcogl-pango0 1.10.2-3 ii libcogl9 1.10.2-3 ii libebackend-1.2-1 3.2.2-3 ii libebook-1.2-12 3.2.2-3 ii libecal-1.2-10 3.2.2-3 ii libedataserver-1.2-15 3.2.2-3 ii libedataserverui-3.0-1 3.2.2-3 ii libenchant1c2a 1.6.0-7 ii libevolution 3.2.2-1+b1 ii libgail-3-0 3.4.2-1 ii libgconf-2-4 3.2.5-1 ii libgdata13 0.12.0-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.2-1 ii libgnome-desktop-3-2 3.4.2-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.4.2-1 ii libgtkhtml-4.0-0 4.2.2-1 ii libgtkhtml-editor-4.0-0 4.2.2-1 ii libgweather-3-0 3.4.1-1 ii libical0 0.48-2 ii libjson-glib-1.0-0 0.14.2-1 ii libmx-1.0-2 1.4.5-1+b1 ii libnotify4 0.7.5-1 ii libnspr4-0d 4.9-1 ii libnss3-1d 3.13.4-1 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii libsoup-gnome2.4-1 2.38.1-2 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.38.1-2 ii libsqlite3-0 3.7.11-3 ii libx11-6 2:1.4.99.901-2 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.3-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.3-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.1-2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0-4 ii libxi6 2:1.6.0-1 ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-9 ii psmisc 22.16-1 Versions of packages evolution recommends: ii bogofilter 1.2.2+dfsg1-1+b1 ii evolution-plugins 3.2.2-1+b1 ii evolution-webcal 2.32.0-2+b1 ii yelp 3.4.1-1 Versions of packages evolution suggests: ii evolution-dbg <none> ii evolution-exchange <none> ii evolution-plugins-experimental <none> ii gnupg 1.4.12-4 ii network-manager 0.9.4.0-4 -- debconf information excluded _______________________________________________ Pkg-evolution-maintainers mailing list Pkg-evolution-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-evolution-maintainers
