ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Comment 1 goo 2023-11-01 21:36:51 UTC

i've since updated to the latest backports and backports-extra repositories and still the same behavior

KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.9
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

Comment 2 goo 2023-11-04 17:44:54 UTC

with both backports and backport-extra enabled:

uninstall,  purge and autoremove  used on kalendar, akonadi-server, kdepim-addons, and kdepim-runtime... then pruned my ~/.config of any mention of related settings and deleted my ~/.cache directory.

restart

install kalendar and kdepim-addons (kaddressbook comes along with it, and is unavoidable but the rest of the korganizer suite is not need).

now i can call up kalendar from the clock widget and add events and can add my personal calendar to the clock widget using the PIM settings.
