Description Lukas Schneiderbauer 2012-10-02 12:03:31 UTC 
Google Calendar has the feature to create a 'birthday'-calendar for all contacts in Google Contacts. When using this feature and synchronizing this calendar with kontact I get two entries for each person's birthday (google's web-interface shows one). When looking more precisely at the two birthday entries one sees following pattern: (only mentioning differences)
Entry 1:
- Start and End date is the exact birth date. (example: 10. Oct. 1972)
- Recurrences:  Repeats every 1 year.
Entry 2:
- Start and End date is the birthday in the current year (example: 10. Oct. 2012)
- Recurrence: Repeates never.
That's the same for each person.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to google webinterface
2. set up an account and create a contact with birthday.
3. create a birthday-calendar
4. synchronize this birthday-calendar within kontact using libkgapi.

Actual Results:  
I see two birthday entries for this person.

Expected Results:  
I see one birthday entry for one person.

I am using libkgapi 0.4.2 (sorry, I could not choose this version before, so I chose 'unspecified') with kde 4.9.1.

Correctly process instances of recurrent events

The bug is fixed only when using LibKGAPI >= 0.4.3, but it causes no
regressions when using older LibKGAPI.
