Just a bit confusing because I would have thought modifying would just be the default, since presumably that's the normal reason for creating a new calendar.
Anyway. I created the new calendar and chose the calendar.ics to install in it. I then get a message at the bottom saying "opening the calendar." But when the message goes away there's nothing in the calendar. When I try to create a sample event in that calendar, the app stops responding and I have to shut down Evo. It seems that changing the preference settings for the workweek somehow corrupted my .ics file. That's buggy. Hopefully when I get home my backup can be used. Should I copy it to ..../.local/share/evolution/calendar/system, or have Evolution import it from its location on the backup medium?
