This turned out to be another symptom of the <CTCap> problem mentioned
in this same thread. The <showctcapproperties>-trick makes Replaces work
as well.
At least it has something to do with the capabilities. I don't think we
have any X- properties in the vcalendar profile; we'd have to check more
carefully which property it is that the device stumbles over.
Lukas, do you have a vision on how and where this should be fixed
properly?
One solution would be to never send any capabilities for the device,
based on a remote rule. This is the sledgehammer approach.
The other solution would be to disable certain properties and/or
parameters, again based on a remote rule. This is a lot more work and
would require changes to the profile mechanism/configuration: first, we
need the ability to activate multiple rules, not just one as supported
now. This is something we already discussed and found useful elsewhere.
Second, we need that for parameters (X-EVOLUTION-SLOT). Right now, only
properties can be controlled like that.
I'm a bit afraid about taking the second path. Lukas, comments?
