Didn't have to hack in gconf.

I did this to got it working again:

Put evolution in offline-mode
Added a / to the end of both caldav urls
(caldav://www.google.com/calendar/dav/MY USERNAME gmail com/events/)
evolution --force-shutdown
Removed all entries for caldav/gmail from Password & Encryption Keys
Went to ~/.evolution/cache/calendar/ and removed all directories that
were involved
Now it actually worked after I restarted evolution after going online +
writing in my password for both calendars

Was probably a bug in some way (since it worked at first but then
stopped working) but this workaround worked for me.

Thanks
