SUMMARY

Most recent calendar entries deleted (about 15 hours worth) when reloading the
file where they are supposed to be saved.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click on the name of the calendar in the bottom left pane.
2. Click "calendar properties".
3. Observer the file name where the calendar is supposed to be saved.
4. Click "okay" (or maybe it was "apply").
5. Observe the calendar reloading with the all the recent entries absent.

OBSERVED RESULT

Most recent calendar entries are deleted.


EXPECTED RESULT

No loss of recent entries.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian Bookworm 6.6.20+rpt-rpi-v8 (64-bit)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I want to backup the .ics file where my calendar entries are saved.  According
the "calendar properties" they are saved in a .ics file in a subdirectory of my
home directory which I backup.  However, it seems that the changes are not
being saved regularly to that file.  I made numerous changes, but the time
stamp of the file didn't change.  I exited korganizer and still the time stamp
of the .ics file didn't change.  I restarted korganizer and all the most recent
additions where there, but still the ics file was too old to be saving those
recent additions.  Then did what I described in "STEPS TO REPRODUCE" and it
seems that the old ics file was reloaded and  I lost all the recent changes
that I'd made (which was about 15 hours worth). 

Where are the changes being saved, if not in the file in the "File Name" box in
the "calendar properties"?  I'd like to know so that I can back up my calendar
files.  I'd like to be able to force any changes I make to a calendar to be
written to a named ics file that I can backup (without having to export that
file as an ics file because I backup many times a day).
