You found a little more than I did. Running this package on a wheezy system is probably the easiest way to read the calendar. But exporting it to a modern file format is likely another matter. I managed to find the wheezy source package. But the way the word has changed, it may be easiest to use the binary package on a real wheezy system thatn to try to build the package in a modern system. I'm still exploring alternatives before taking action. For past events, I'd be happy with a complete, readable text file. I might be able to write a program to produce that if I find a compatible version of sqlite, or if current sqlite will upgrade the db to whatever it uses now. For future events, I could hand-enter them into a new calendar system -- preferably one that lets me export everything into a readable form, and which I can sync across devices with something relemblig revision control. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
