            Bug ID: 309792
          Severity: major
           Version: 4.9
          Priority: NOR
                CC: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

           Summary: GoogleData resource does not sync/download to-do list
                    or calendar data
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: chrisjohntapp at gmail.com
          Hardware: Ubuntu Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: GoogleData Resource
           Product: Akonadi

Sometimes data will not be synced.  If I for example add an event in Kontact,
this will be automatically synced/uploaded to google servers and will soon show
up on google calendar.  If I create something on google calendar however (or on
an android app which uploads/syncs to google calendar) it will not
sync/download to Kontact.  This leaves my to-do list and calendar data on my
laptop unreliable and therefore unusable.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Create an event on google calendar
2. wait for it to download
3. click refresh / restart app...  still won't sync
Actual Results:  
Data doesn't sync

Expected Results:  
Data syncs

Data should be consistantly a two-way sync for it to be useful at all. 

How can it be that vital functionality like this is still broken nearly 5 years
into KDE 4?  It seems like every point release comes with the claim that PIM
will work from now on, but it never does.  

Please guys, make this stuff work, or we can't use KDE! And we really want to!
