I’m a new openSUSE Tumbleweed user and am enjoying switching from Fedora Gnome. Everything is working well but I have found a bug with Gnome Calendar. The Gnome Calendar opens fine. It syncs my calendar from google the way it should, but when I attempt to move a month ahead it crashes. I can move a month behind and then back to the current month but trying to go to the next month it crashes. The version of the Gnome Calendar is 3.38.1.
Being new to openSUSE, how should I proceed to submit a bug report? Does openSUSE have any application to help out with that?
Thanks for the quick reply. I really do appreciate the help. So, if and when a patch is added how would I apply the patch? Or do I? Would it be better to wait for the application to get updated?
Thanks for that information that a fix is in the process of being pushed out. I’m still very new to this ecosystem and amd trying to get a lay of the land. I don’t want to bother you, I am sure you have a lot on your plate. But, how do we (I) get the fix? I assume that someone is working on fixing it and once that is done and approved it gets updated? Is that correct or is is a lot more involved?
Hi
It will go through review (I expect it won’t take long, it’s mostly automated), it’s been accepted, so will get into the release cycle (openQA). It’s made it to openSUSE Factory, I expect the next snapshot… Show openSUSE:Factory / gnome-calendar - openSUSE Build Service
If you have an OBS account, you could download and install… the last snapshot build was 12 hours ago, so missed that one… https://openqa.opensuse.org/
I would have thought with the updates that came out yesterday evening that one of the applications to get updated would have been the gnome-calendar. But, it wasn’t. Do you have any idea as to the status of the updated application?
Information for package gnome-calendar:
---------------------------------------
Repository : Main Repository (OSS)
Name : gnome-calendar
Version : 3.38.1+7-1.1
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/gnome-calendar/gnome-calendar.changes?expand=1
I’ll add this perspective as an afterthought. I’ve not found Gnome Calendar consistently functional with my Google calendar for quite a while.
BUT…
If instead I install my google account into Evolution, including following the link to sync my calendars during the account add process, the Evolution calendar works much better. Not just re switching months, but in a whole lot of other ways too.
Good luck. I hope they get that app happy with Google again at some point.
