Version: 3.4.1 (using KDE 3.4.1, Gentoo) Compiler: gcc version 3.4.3 20041125 (Gentoo Linux 3.4.3-r1, ssp-3.4.3-0, pie-8.7.7) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.10-nitro4 Hi, I'm trying to share a todo list between local users, to do this I have exported my todo list '/usr/local/share/shared.todo.ics' from one user 'user1' and change the group of to '/usr/local/share/shared.todo.ics' 'commongroup', so the file looks like this ls -l /usr/local/share/shared.todo.ics -rw-rw---T user1 commongroup /usr/share/shared.todo.ics I've then opened the todo list under another user 'user2' but when I try to save the todo list I get an error 'error while saving /usr/local/share/shared.todo.ics' and in /usr/local/share/ a new file is created ls -l /usr/local/share/shared.todo.ics* -rw-rw---T user1 commongroup /usr/share/shared.todo.ics -rw-rw---T user2 commongroup /usr/share/shared.todo.ics~ after that I get a different error message when I try to change the file 'Unable to edit instance: it is locked by another process' if I chown user2 /usr/share/shared.todo.ics I can save the file again. so the problem is that KOrganizer isn't obeying the file permissions properly.
Reassigning all KOrganizer bug reports and wishes to the newly created korganizer-devel mailing list.
This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
