           Summary: Editing recurring calendar items causes temporary
                    disappearance
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

When I edit a recurring calendar item (say, to change the end time), save it,
and click "Apply to All Occurances" OR "Apply to This Occurance" the item seems
to disappear. What's really happening is the sunset date for the recurrance is
getting reset to 2005-09-15. (Beware the ides of September.) Further
investigation shows that it resets the sunset date for the recurrance to two
weeks into the future.

Here's the iCalendar for the event after changing the end time from 18:15 to 18:30:
Notice that it doesn't even properly change the end time. The original sunset
date for the recurrance was 2005-12-09 (last day of class at UT Austin).

I'm using Evolution 2.4.1 on Breezy/i686 on a Thinkpad T40p with the extra
"Evolution 2.2" plugins installed. I haven't tried this without the plugins
installed.
