[Evolution] gnome panel clock doesn't show appointments

["v.spagnolo" <v spagnolo pobox com>]

Kia Ora,
A few weeks ago I upgraded my laptop to gnome3/evo 3.2.2 on debian
wheezy. All is well except that that scheduled appointments do not show
up when I click on the clock in middle of the top panel. 
Aside from making my regular appointments during the day, I also made a
new default calendar "on this computer" and made an test appointment.
Asking in several IRC channels resulted in "it should just work". And
web searches haven't turned up anything. Well except this,
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-892366.html?sid=b186b756ac22f99f0f4729ea838f9ec0 , which suggested 
changing time zones. Tried that too.

Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks,
V
