I have gnome-calendar installed on Ubuntu 19.04, and gedit is still
displayed as the only available choice in the default app settings. The
workaround was to run the following: gio mime text/calendar
org.gnome.Calendar.desktop
Now gnome-calendar appears as the default (and only) calendar app...

Its just easy to add thunderbird to the default calendar client:
Edit /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop
and add text/calendar;text/x-vcard; to MimeType
at least run: update-desktop-database -q
Now you see Thunderbird in the Default Applications dialog.

of course this is just a pseudo fix, as it doesn't integrate Thunderbird
into the Unity Panel and its Calendar Indicator. That means, I can't see
any of my events from the indicator, nor can I click on Add Event...

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

John, that was a well presented notion. You sum up exactly my sentiment
and I support your opinion wholeheartedly. I wonder what we, the end-
users, could do to get this issue noted.
I believe Google+ is a good starting point, as Ubuntu is well
represented there by various circles. Thoughts?
This issue still persists as of today, March 18 2013.
I find it hard to believe that Canonical is unable to fix this. Gedit is
*not* a calendar application and should thus *not* appear in the
Default Applications settings as the default calendar.

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

@Rainer: your issue there is mostly the lack of calendar solution in the
default installation, fixing the ui to display no calendar available
might remove some confusion but will still not be a solution for those
users who want a calendar. Note that if you install evolution you get a
calendar and
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. Again, this is old news, and should not be required
considering that Evolution was ditched as the default email/calendaring
app in support of
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
Well, scratch everything I said about Evolution ... lol. No wonder why I
don't use it as the default calendar. Apparently, it doesn't work well,
and doesn't display the events, then asks for the password, and, even
though the password is right, it insists on telling me that the password
is wrong
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
Thanks for the feedback, Nekhelesh.
It's a shame that only with Ubuntu Touch is there some movement towards
a calendar app. I wonder why in Ubuntu Touch good old gedit wasn't
chosen as Default Calendar App. ;) Got any insights on that?
Anyway, desktop Ubuntu needs such calendar app asap -- and

Ok, this bug seems to disappear when a proper calendar application is installed
(e.g. Maya in my case) (see the attached screenie).
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;
The screenie ... :P
