[Evolution] Bug#559177: evolution: CalDAV calendars not refreshed

Package: evolution
Version: 2.28.1-2
Severity: normal

I use a Davical server to share my calendars between my laptop and
desktop computers.  I mostly use Iceowl/Sunbird to do the editing
(because it can do read/write on tasks), but also Evolution from time to
time, if only as a configuration front-end to configure the Gnome clock
applet to display my tasks and events.

It seems Evolution only reads CalDAV calendars once, and doesn't refresh
them afterwards: I've added an event with Iceowl to a calendar last
week, and Evolution still doesn't display it.  I can see queries going
to the CalDAV server, and there's no particular error code.  Also, if I
delete Evolution's cache, kill evolution-data-server and relaunch
Evolution, the current state of the calendar is properly fetched, so no
permission or configuration problem there.

Roland.
