I just had similar issues with Evolution today because it did some
weird stuff to one of my calendars. After any changes you make to the
.ics files themselves, you need to kill evolution-data-server before
the changes will be registered. I don't know why it doesn't let you
delete it, but it wouldn't let me delete the one I wanted either. It
would let me delete my web calendars though. Weird. Evolution is
turning into a monster of creaky code.
