Summary: Akonadi ignores changes to contacts' vCard files
Product: Akonadi
Version: 1.6.0
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Contacts resource
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Version: 1.6.0 (using KDE 4.7.2)
OS: Linux
this is with Akonadi 1.6.2.
some changes to an address book are much easier to make using non-Akonadi
tools. this is especially true for batch edits, and more especially if there
is custom logic involved in the edits.
however, if i make some changes to my contacts, Akonadi apparently ignores
them. my setup is as follows:
* a Personal Contacts resource sourced from ~/.local/share/contacts-work.
* a Personal Contacts resource sourced from ~/.local/share/contacts-personal.
* an Akonadi Google Contacts resource sourced from my Google account.
if i make changes to the vCard files in ~/.local/share/contacts-work, the
changes do not show up in KAddressBook, even if i right-click the address book
and choose "Update Address Book folder". it seems to me that the latter action
should pull in any changes that were made externally to the vCard files.
a workaround is to remove and recreate the corresponding Personal Contacts
resource.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a Personal Contacts resource.
2. add or import some contacts via KAddressBook.
3. make some changes to the *.vcf files in the resource's directory.
4. open KAddressBook.
5. right-click the address book created in step 1, then choose "Update Address
Book folder".
Actual Results:
the changes made in step 3 are not visible in KAddressBook.
Expected Results:
the changes made in step 3 are visible in KAddressBook after step 5. it would
be even better if this was true after step 4.
