            Bug ID: 444684
           Summary: Adding a VCALENDAR by URL makes it not sync unless you
                    manually restart the ical resource agent
           Product: korganizer
           Version: GIT (master)
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: import/export

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
I was trying to add a Moodle calendar to KOrganizer, which gives you a calendar
URL in VCALENDAR format. After adding it as an "iCal Calendar File" via the
URL, it creates an empty calendar called "akonadi_ical_resource_n" (where n is
a number). Neither syncing the calendar nor restarting KOrganizer nor
restarting Akonadi populates it.

I tried messing around with it in Akonadi Console and found that restarting the
ical agent for the calendar makes it sort of work: it creates another calendar
with the actual name I gave it in the add dialog which has all the entries in
it, but the old "akonadi_ical_resource_n" one stays and trying to remove it to
clean it up because it's useless takes the actual calendar with it, probably
because they are owned by the same agent. (I ended up clearing out all the
content types in the Internals tab, yes, the one that says "Do not even think
about changing anything in here!" ;), to make it at least not show up anymore.)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a VCALENDAR URL via the iCal type, optionally give it a name
2. The added calendar doesn't have the name you input and it doesn't sync
either
3. Restart the agent in Akonadi Console to have the actual calendar show up but
the empty one stay

OBSERVED RESULT
The added calendar ignores the name you gave it and never gets populated.

EXPECTED RESULT
The added calendar populates with the data behind the URL.
