I have a problem with the GNOME Shell calendar under Ubuntu 18.04: all my calendar entries (from Google Calendar) are duplicated. Would anyone know why?

Thank you!

One clarification: I linked my Google Account to GNOME, but I also had windows asking for passwords from all my calendars before that. When I suppress my Google account, the problem does not appear anymore. So I think it's the ICS that I had previously imported into Evolution. But even after removing .local \ share \ evolution \ calendar \ system \ calendar.ics, the entries are still present.

It's working fine after deleting ~/.config/evolution/sources

I found that setting CalendarEnabled=false and then back to true worked for me in the source files in ~/.config/evolution

I just got this problem after installing Evolution and adding my Google account using the first-run wizard.

Evolution creates several sources in ~/.config/evolution/sources and it took me a bit of experimentation to figure out what was going on. I’m still not sure I know which is the correct way these should be ordered.

The Google account has a parent source. Child sources will have an identifier (Parent=) in the [Data Source] section. For me there were child sources for imapx and smtp as well as a non-child source for OAuth2.

Google account source
├─ imapx source
├─ smtp source
OAuth2 source

The OAuth2 source had CalendarEnabled=true & ContactsEnabled=true.

The parent account source had CalendarEnabled=true & ContactsEnabled=false.

The simplest solution is to just change the parent account source to have CalendarEnabled=false.

As an experiment I also tried making the OAuth2 source a child of the account source, then enabling calender/contact in the parent and disabling them in OAuth2.

This also worked and seems to make more sense to me, but I’m honestly not sure how it’s supposed to work.
