Not addressing the bug in particular, but this part should also work with the 
main iCal file resource.
The resource you are trying to create is a compatibility mechanism to cover 
access methods that have not been properly ported to the new system yet.

Which, as far as I know, is no longer the case for any backend adaptors 
shipped by KDE itself, i.e. only useful if any third party calendar plugin had 
been used.

Cheers,
Kevin
