Description Norbert Blobel 2006-03-20 04:40:21 UTC

Version:           3.5 (using KDE 3.5.1 Level "a" , SUSE 10.0 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.13-15.8-default

Hi

I recently noticed that KOrganizer fails to import certain vcs files. The same file imports fine in Evolution 2.4.0 and Windows PPC 5. 

The problem mostly occurs when receiving calendars or events from sites as AVIS or certain flight carriers. 
When I receive a file eg from Avis, save it to the desktop, in KOrganizer I go to import calender > select the file > merge into existing calender then KOrganizer seems to import the file. However, the field remains blank. 
If needed, I can forward the vcs file. 

I am lodging this as a bug, as other applications seem the import the file fine. I also have this problem on a laptop, also running SuSE 10 KDE 3.5.1, however it is a i386 machine. 

Cheers
Norbert

Avis Rental Car VCS which does not import into KOrganizer

Avis Rental Car vcs does not import into KOrganizer. However it imports fine
into Evolution.

Reassigning all KOrganizer bug reports and wishes to the newly created 
korganizer-devel mailing list.

still valid in r827xxx

That vcs file is bugged.

It uses the QUOTED-PRINTABLE encoding, so:

InvokeMVCReservation?LANGUAGE=en

should be
InvokeMVCReservation?LANGUAGE=3Den


(equal signs must be encoded)

Here's a simpler test case:

What description do you see with evolution? Do you see the = sign after LANGUAGE in the description or does evolution just skips it?
