gnome-calendar 3.20.4 inoperable after update on 13 October 2016

[Stephen Matthias]

Calendar 3.20.4 has no data showing. It is a blank calendar. All my data seems to be erased.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

The minimal informations needed would include the Ubuntu version and desktop environment you are using. It would also be useful to know how you configured your calendars and if the account config shows any error.

In Ubuntu 16.04 Unity Calendar 3.20.4 has no data showing. It is a blank calendar. All my data seems to be erased. No edits can be made either.

Taking a blind guess because there's so little information here. Maybe this is related to the recent troubles with Google authentication.

Are you using Unity or GNOME or some other desktop?
Was your calendar in sync with Google Calendar before?

As a workaround, please try restarting your computer.

Yes, I received warnings that I had trouble with Google authentication.
I do not understand what that Google authentication means. I hacked
away at the problem, but to no effect. Anyways, I now use the Lightning
calendar within Thunderbird Mail. I cut and paste information contained
in my emails into my calendar. Lightning calendar is better because it
does not leave big end-of-line icons when copying and pasting
information into it.

I think that I used the Google Calendar, but I did not like that
information in the calendar was directly linked to Firefox Web Browser
email tabs. These tabs filled my Firefox Web Browser window.

Thank you for your on-going effort in improving Ubuntu.
