[Bug 841409] Re: GEdit is the only choice as Calendar application in Default Applications dialog
Hello Rainer, I have to agree with you on this bug report. I have been subscribed to this for well over a year and as an end user I have not seen any progress. I advocate Ubuntu to a lot of people and generally I am happy in the direction Ubuntu is taking. However I feel that this shows a lack of commitment to detail. I would not expect to find something like this in OSX or Microsoft Windows. It is the little details that make the overall experience. Defaulting a calendar to open Gedit is simply not good practise. A calendar is a very basic item to have built in to your desktop and I was astounded when it was removed in Ubuntu and even more so that it is given such prominence in the touch edition of Ubuntu. Can any developer explain this disparity? It was stated that Thunderbird would provide the same level of functionality as Evolution did when the switch was first mooted and that Thunderbird would ship with a calendar. This is cleary an example of a regression in Ubuntu when a feature is removed and not replaced with an equivalent. Let me just ask, why is it essential for my phone that a calendar be a default application but not my desktop which I probably spend 10 times longer using in a day? Surely you would want to link your calendar across both devices in order to be productive. I think it is time that Canonical take a holistic approach to the totality of their computing experience and provide a consitent experience.

Rainer, we understand the situation however there are no proper calendar applications available. Sure there is Lightning as an add-on for Thunderbird, however I don't think it is included by default. Probably a bug report is to be opened in Thunderbird to include. We are working on a calendar app for the Ubuntu Touch phone.

PS: After adding Evolution and configuring a "fake" email account, I was able to set up Google Calendar in Evolution, which becomes the default calendar.

[Bug 841409] Re: GEdit is the only choice as Calendar application in Default Applications dialog
I am with you, Sebastien. However, having to install Evolution alongside with Thunderbird doesn't make much sense from an end-user standpoint either. In order for Evo's calendar function to work, one has to at least set up one email account first, which is redundant with what that user might already have set up for Thunderbird. If Evolution would offer to only install the calendar portion, which then could be configured individually and detached from email, it would work. However, I believe it would be smart to use the existing Online Accounts option that already allow for Google accounts to be set up. Why not extend this towards Google Calendar as well? Once that Online Account was set up, it should ask the user of they want to integrate Google Calendar in Ubuntu... That would be nice.

[Bug 841409] Re: GEdit is the only choice as Calendar application in Default Applications dialog
Well, Sebastien, as a mere user of Ubuntu, who also gets the word out quiet a bit about trying and adopting Ubuntu, I have to say that responses like "fix it yourself" don't really help because I am not a programmer. My wife isn't a programmer either, but she recently (finally!) adopted Ubuntu at her office and one of the first things she mentioned was "Why doesn't the Calendar called Gedit not work? It's just an empty file when I open it...". So, from a end-user standpoint, this is not cosmetic and not minor, considering that, in my wife's case, she has to have a calendar option. Needless to say, the Workaround is Thunderbird with Lightning and Google Calendar provider, however, it would be far nicer to have Google Calendar integrated into the Ubuntu's notification area and from the dropdown beneath the clock.

Also, this is a bug is not a gedit one (captain obvious), cuz gedit's category are: Categories=GNOME;GTK;Utility;TextEditor; and no: Categories=GTK;Office;Calendar; It's most likely caused by the fact that there is no out of the box calendar app which makes me think - is there really a need for Calendar application in Default Applications dialog? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to desktop-file-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/841409 Title: GEdit is the only choice as Calendar application in Default Applications dialog To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/841409/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
