Cool. Thanks for the hardwork.

Considering I am having all these bug type issues, anyway I can get the SVN link so I can attempt to compile and test the new code?

Maybe from a "divide and conqueror" perspective, can you please put out a pre-release that fixes the show stopping errors (like the hang during sync), and then move ahead to the re-occurring events with exceptions?

Thank you for all of your work (I know what it's like to make freeware available) but something in the diablo upgrade broke erming for me and every sync hangs as above and as mentioned in your other thread. So far I have been completely undisciplined in terms of keeping my Google calendar and GPE in sync manually! Lazy me

Thank you!

Yes, this may be a good idea to postpone a little bit the recurring event fixes, in favor of the more serious problems. If everything goes as planned, I will put a pre-version in extras-devel for a few days, and then promote it to extras as soon as I have some feedback that nothing is horribly broken.

I will let you know here how it goes.

Version 0.3.2 of Erminig will hit extras-devel in a few moments, so if anyone is interested in testing it, go ahead! Please remember that extras-devel contains software still in development, so update wisely!

The changelog is as follow:

- fix many errors related to "TypeError" (such as the one seen by combatdoc)
- configuration should not disappear by itself (completely rewritten configuration management code)
- various code fixes
- major code cleanup (we are almost at the end!)
- new option for command-line mode to always accept google events removal
- config file of Erminig is now backed-up by osso-backup

Known issues: recurrent event are still hit-and-miss, especially those with exceptions.
I don't know if the error seen by My5t3ry will be fixed by this update. Please report back if you still get them!

Thanks lorelei for your responses on this and other threads. I am also having a hang during synch issue after installing erminig 3.2-3 today on my n800 with diablo.

I am not a technical person so I hope the prob is something that can be fixed in an update!
Thanks again.

Maicol: thanks for the report. This problem is without any doubt fixable in an update. I will put it in the bug tracker, and take a look at it this evening. I'll keep you informed of how it goes.

Maicol: bug has been fixed in the latest SVN commit. I don't have a date yet for an updated package...but it should not take too long!

I can't sync GCal with erminig anymore - since last update. Reinstalled and set up again, no luck. Here is the last entry from the debug log before erminig hangs (or rather, does not continue):

ImportGoogleEvents

Many thanks for any suggestions!

vectorchem: first time I see such a problem. I will investigate.

Do you have a precise step-by-step procedure to reproduce this? A special entry in Google-Calendar?

I say thank you also, for taking over Erminig. It has been great for me. But it started to fail a few updates ago (sorry I didn't pay attention to the versions). I patiently awaited updates, watching this thread. But with each update, my problem remained. I'll describe it here, but I'm sorry I don't have logs, because Erminig is not recording debug info (I set it to, but it doesn't!).

I have used Erminig successfully to sync 4 calendars on Google (one is mine, 3 are others' that I've subscribed to) with 4 calendars on GPE Cal. A few version cycles ago, my calendars started to hang when around 75% done with syncing (not all of them at once, but successively--now none work). I know this description might not help you much, but my question might be simple: because my problem has remained even after uninstalling GPE and Erminig (and in fact certain data has remained even after uninstalling/reinstalling) is there some cache or data file that I can delete to have a super-clean reinstall?

I think, otherwise, my Google calendars are pretty "clean" ... i.e. they don't have any data with known sync issues.

thanks for any help, and thanks for the work you're doing. Let me know if I can provide any more info ...
