Bug Description
Timezone of stop date is ignored for ics files and caldac calendars.
The attached example has a during of 7 hours. It gets imported correctly with evolution.
However, it looks like an event with a duration of one hour in the calendar. Thunderbird displays the event correctly (as my iPhone).
Import creates error message if stop time in local timezone is 'before' start time in specified timezone (see second example). Event is not displayed in the regular calender view but can be seen in the list view.
When I open the entry, I can only choose a timezone for the entire event, i.e., not for start and stop date separately.
Expected behavior:
- correct display of length of event in the calendar view
- separate entry fields for timezones for start and stop date (cf. Thunderbird - Lightning)
