Bug Description

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.

Hello,

Thanks for reporting this feature request! Unfortunately, at this time Kubuntu does not have the developer manpower needed to implement and maintain many features at the Kubuntu level. But don't worry! This issue is being tracked by the KDE developers at: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171804
Once implemented in KDE, it will be included in Kubuntu once the KDE version the feature is implemented in reaches Kubuntu.

Thanks!
