Bug#1021938: kalarm: .local/share/kalarm/expired.ics is not a valid iCalendar file
Package: kalarm
Version: 4:22.08.0-2
Severity: normal
kalarm has been broken on testing since a recent upgrade on testing.
It appears to have lost all the events. I suspect that this was
upgrade kalarm:amd64 4:22.04.3-1 4:22.08.0-2
(from my /var/log/dpkg... )
It reports that various *.ics files cannot be read. These are files that
the previous version wrote.
Example from a "gdb kalarm" run:
kf.calendarcore: "/home/ael/.local/share/kalarm/expired.ics" is not a valid iCalendar file
kf.calendarcore: Error parsing vCalendar file: pop on empty Object Stack
at line 106
I have tried various attempts to rewite the file(s), and I no longer
remember the details. But I have certainly not touched expired.ics
above.
Just deleting, say calendar.ics, and allowing kalarm to recreate seems
to work so far. It is a major bug if kalarm loses all the future events
amd has not kept a backup (so far as I can determine).
I think korganizer also accesses some of the same files, and also seems
to be working incorrectly.
Trying to import from other *.ics files also silently fails.
