Hi,

Currently there is an issue with this two packages and org-gcal :

org-gcal does not expect a blank Calendar heading in the calendars files but gnus-icalendar absolutely wants it :/

Even after fixing this manually by putting a valid event under the calendar heading, I am not sure that it will be took in consideration by org-gcal and there will not be duplicated entries.

Can org-gcal acknowledge the 'gnus-icalendar-org-capture-headline' (and avoid duplicating entries) ?

Hi, org-gcal shouldn't download events twice in general, because it searches org-gcal-fetch-file-alist as well as agenda files for events.

Could you give an example of your use case?

Ok, let alone the duplicating entries part.

My use case :

But, starting from a blank page,

If I remove the headline and fetch with org-gcal again, it works. If I keep the headline, accept an invitation and then fetch with org-gcal, it works.

Hi, could you be a bit more specific about

org-gcal shouldn't care about any void gnus-icalendar-org-capture-headline.

My use case :

  • to receive an invitation by mail.
  • with gnus-icalendar or mu4e-icalendar, I accept the invitation.
  • A new heading is created for this appointment under gnus-icalendar-org-capture-headline in gnus-icalendar-org-capture-file
  • I want to use the same file for gnus-icalendar-org-capture-file and org-gcal-fetch-file-alist (I can then manage multiple calendars for each of my mails by making gnus-icalendar-org-capture-file a mu4e-context variable that is switched when I switch of mail address ... )

But, starting from a blank page,

  • I create the gnus-icalendar-org-capture-file with its gnus-icalendar-org-capture-headline, no appointments yet.
  • I setup org-gcal, try to fetch, it does not allow it because of the void gnus-icalendar-org-capture-headline.

If I remove the headline and fetch with org-gcal again, it works. If I keep the headline, accept an invitation and then fetch with org-gcal, it works.
