calendar alarm pops-up for google calendar

[paffni]

Binary package hint: thunderbird

google calendar is loaded in thunderbird via lightning add-on
every time thunderbird is launched and every 5-10 minutes after that lightning pops-up "calendar alarms" for past google calendar events which can not be disabled/dismissed by lightning as the calendar is in "read-only" mode.
removing notification from google calendar and reloading calendar in thunderbird does not help.
ubuntu 8.04
thunderbird 2.0.0.14
lightning 0.7

I have the same problem but quite diferent, with this verions of the programs:

Ubuntu 7.10

Lightning 0.8 (build 2008033118)
Provider for Google Calendar 0.8

The problem problem described before but only happens when I change one element in Google Calendar.

I'm having a similar problem. Thunderbird crashes when an alarm from the calendar goes off.
Ubuntu 8.0.4
Lightning 0.9
Provider for Google 0.5

fwiw, also have Zindus 0.7.8

adelattre Your problem is not the same and you are not using Ubuntus version please file your bug upstream. I sent this reply by email but hasnt showed up yet,
Arturo, you have upstream version of sunbird? I never released 0.8 to gutsy plese file bug report upstream.
paffni, can you please test with our package for version 0.8

[adelattre (adelattre-gmail)]

John,
 Thanks for the reply. To be sure that I'm clear: you're saying that I'm
not using the Ubuntu version of Thunderbird? Or is it that I'm not using
the Ubuntu version of something else? Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.

Sorry... my version of provider for google calendar was 0.5

Nowadays, I haven't time to do this. If in the future, I have time, I trie
to prove it.

(Sorry, my english is poor)

Any news on this? Is this still an issue on the latest version of Ubuntu?

[John Vivirito (gnomefreak)]

Closing due to no response since 2008, This should have been fixed in latest sunbird/lightning version 0.9

Lightning 0.8 (build 2008033118)
Provider for Google Calendar 0.8

is not our build but either way this was fixed Upstream as i recall.
