Re: [Evolution] Calendar file messed up



You have to run "evolution --force-shutdown" before editing the file.
Then the changes will stick.

Somehow my calendar has hundreds of appointments on Dec. 31, 2027,

of Evo has crashed.)

There are way too many entries to remove by hand, on my Visor, so I
would like to edit some file to remove them. I found the offending
entries in ~/evolution/local/Calendar/calendar.ics, and removed them
(being careful to start at BEGIN:VEVENT, and end at END:VEVENT). But
these events seem to be immortal: when I restarted Evo, the old
calendar.ics file had been recreated, with the offending events still
there.

Any suggestions on how to eliminate them?
