Bug#617652: gnome-panel: some Evolution appointments don't appear in clock menu

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.30.2-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

I have several Evolution calendars (one from the web and several local).

In the menu obtained by clicking on the clock, dates in the calendar are bold
as expected if they have any of:

* a contact's birthday
* an appointment in a local calendar
* an appointment in the web calendar

but the Appointments expander doesn't include appointments from local
calendars, and doesn't appear at all if there are no web appointments.

I believe this is the same bug as

* <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633566>
* <https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=106216&p=1>

and is triggered by upgrading Evolution, which migrates calendars to a new
storage scheme. There are patches on the GNOME bug and at
<http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/gnome-panel/repos/extra-x86_64/evolution-appointments.patch>.

I'll try out the patch and see if it fixes this issue.
