Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evolution
Create a new Friday appointment that recurs weekly, forever. Go back in
and change the recurrence from Friday to Saturday. Click "Save" on the
appointment, and it'll ask if you want to save it for "This Instance
Only" or "All Instances".
Alright, this is the first problem. It makes no sense to edit the
occurrence for a single instance.
Select "This Instance Only", and save it. Now, when you go back in, the
recurrence information is grayed out, and you can't change it. This is
true of both the instance you changed or any other instance. You can
see that the instance you changed has no recurrence info, but all others
have the original recurrence info. But you can't change any of them.
Also, nothing actually changes day. Not even the one you told to.
You can regain access to the recurrence settings by changing the time
for all appointments. But the state of the series never seems quite
right again, and it seems to lead to cascading badness, possibly
including crashes.
This was produced using a local calendar.
