Description Alejandro Nova 2012-04-05 18:04:16 UTC

Recently, I upgraded my Google Calendar resource, to solve sync problems. The Calendar resource was upgraded, but the Tasks resource was superceded by the new Tasks handling in the Calendar resource. And I was stuck with 2 Tasks resources: one, stuck in time, and the other, current.

When the Akonadi agent associated with the Tasks resource disappeared, Akonadi couldn't remove the resource anymore. I had to invalidate the resource using Akonadi Console, but Akonadi Console can't remove properly the resource, so I'm left with a ghost Tasks folder, that doesn't do anything.

Akonadi MUST gain the ability to remove resources on its own.

I get the same problems with resources created by the external akonadi-google plugin which aren't reused by the resources created with the new kdepim 4.9.

Updating version and status.

Comment 3 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 20:31:21 UTC

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.

Comment 4 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 21:26:24 UTC

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.
