        Hi,
is Evolution actually frozen? I ask, because the GTK itself may have
disabled animations, which leads to confusion like this. If you can move
to other view, like back to Mail or anywhere else, then Evolution is
fine with respect of "stuck animation".

It's hard to tell. I'd prefer, if you could install debuginfo packages
for evolution-data-server and evolution, and provide backtraces of both
processes, evolution (frozen or not) and evolution-calendar-factory,
where it might be that the evolution is waiting for a response from the
factory. You can get the backtrace for evolution with a command like
this:

   $ gdb --batch --ex "t a a bt" -pid=`pidof evolution` &>bt.txt

only make sure you'll not expose any private information, like your
passwords, email addresses and so on - I usually search at least for
"pass" (quotes for clarity only).

I think this investigation is unrelated to this mailing list, thus it
would be better to file a bug at:
   https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=evolution
and add all the data there, then send a link to this thread for later
reference.
        Bye,
