Comment 1 Francois Taiani 2005-05-10 13:33:15 UTC 
I've got the same problem with Evo 2.2.2, on Debian Sarge (testing). I've tried to locate where the 
information about the different calendars is kept, but could not find it. I've tried to remove my $HOME/
.evolution folder, with no success: all my appointement are wiped away (as to be expected), but the 
bloody extra calendars are still here. Interestingly I can change their name, and the change survive any 
restart / shutdown of evolution.

My very non-informed guess is that this might be related to the evolution-data-server backend.
Comment 2 Chenthill P 2005-05-11 06:57:41 UTC 
You should delete the calendar entry from the gconf. The path would be
apps/evolution/calendar. It would be wasy to do this using gconf-editor.
Comment 3 Alessio Spadaro 2005-07-27 11:38:12 UTC 
Cannot reproduce on Evolution 2.2.1.1 on Ubuntu 5.04
Comment 4 Andre Woesten 2005-08-03 07:52:59 UTC 
Yes, you have to delete this by using gconf-editor. The calendar entry is
specified by the XML-tag "source".
Comment 5 Chenthill P 2005-08-05 09:04:08 UTC 
Is the new calendar created under the Source Group "On this computer"?
