Somewhat lazy copypaste action:

Binary package hint: korganizer

I have two calendars: exchange, at work, and gcal. Via Korganizer's exchange
plugin, I've synced exchange -> gcal, so that if I'm on the road I still have
an up to date calendar that can send me SMS notifications, etc. Most of the
time I will add new appointments via gcal, and then (if business related) sync
then manually to exchange so that people in the office can see them. This leads
to the same appointments frequently being in both calendars. In this situation,
Korganizer should detect the duplication, and only show me one of them.

I'd say the duplication detection algorithm could work as follows:
* Time is exactly the same
* The subjects are exactly the same, and/or the levenstein distance is minor
* Appointment shows up in Korganizer with a "x2" icon next to it; if you click
on the x2, it shows both."
