this bug should be renamed, since it's not "from kmail" that we edit events, and the problem isn't limited to having KMail selected in Kontact.  i can reproduce the problem with KAddressBook and (iirc) any other non-KOrganizer component selected in Kontact.  however, selecting a KOrganizer component once during the Kontact session will prevent the issue thereafter--the Edit button will then work even if e.g. Mail is selected.  restarting Kontact causes the problem to return.

this is with Kontact 4.4.7 with KDE 4.5.3 on Kubuntu 10.10.

Christopher, can you test if this still happens for you in KDE 4.11 ?

Comment 3 Christopher Yeleighton 2013-12-30 12:38:09 UTC

Editing possible after Kontact restart.
