[Kde-pim] akonadi_ical_resource problem

[Douglas Harms]

Your guess appears to be correct!  When I disabled monitoring the sync 
worked; it also worked when I enabled monitoring but set the AutoSave 
interval to a time longer than it takes to process the akonadi records.  
(It was originally set for 1 minute autosave, and things worked when I 
increased it to 60 minutes.)

This is a reasonable workaround for now, but I'm not sure if this is an 
acceptable long term solution for kpilot.  I don't think it's a good 
design when users might lose data if they have the autosave setting set 
too low.

Is there a way kpilot could temporarily disable monitoring on the 
akonadi file during the sync?  Or is there a better solution?

Thanks for your help - this has been a thorn in my side for some time 
now and I'm glad to know there's  a workaround.
