Evolution and gnome calendar applet display duplicate/incorrect events

Bug Description

I've been using Google Calendar with Evolution for some time.

The address entered into Evolution is of the form: webcal://www.google.com/calendar/ical/...

Events on my google calendar appear when you click the date/time/calendar gnome applet or use the Evolution calendar tab.
However, whenever you change or delete events in Google calendar, both evolution and the applet behaviour incorrectly - changing an event results in the event being duplicated, while deleting the event in Google calendar has no effect.

I find this bug very annoying as it results in a completely untrustable calendar.

Thanks for your report, I also have a google calendar and if i update an event it doesn't get duplicated. Not confirming, which version of Evolution and Ubuntu are you running? thanks.

Gutsy with Evolution 2.12.1 (i.e. fully up-to-date).

It only seems to happen when altering recurring events.

Thank you for your bug report. The hardy version should work correctly on google calendar now, could you give a try and comment on whether the issue is still there?
