• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Shawn Bohrer 2007-07-15 23:13:01 UTC]

If your Google Calendar has recurrent events the libopensync-plugin-google-calendar will crash with an output similar to:

 Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/libexec/google-cal-helper", line 402, in ?
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "/usr/libexec/google-cal-helper", line 394, in main
    return fn(argv)
  File "/usr/libexec/google-cal-helper", line 286, in oper_get_all
    data = e.dumpOsync()
  File "/usr/libexec/google-cal-helper", line 200, in dumpOsync
    self.addElementContent(doc, event, 'DateStarted', xsdateToOsync(self.dtstart))
  File "/usr/libexec/google-cal-helper", line 118, in xsdateToOsync
    raise DateConversionError("Invalid date/time: %s" % (s))
__main__.DateConversionError: Invalid date/time:

Reproducible: Always
