Review for Provider for Google Calendar by DrMartinus
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Hi,
I'll give 5 stars once this is fixed. I'm using Kubuntu 14.04. A few days, TB was updated and all addons, but this Add-on gives me the creeps since then. Thunderbird becomes unusable. It waits minutes for somthing to happen, then opens a window, which takes another minute, to tell that a script which is part of this add-on has problems or so, and clicking on the "stop script" button takes another minute to respond. This goes on and on. After disabling the add-on, TB works fine again. But I have no calendar data. Lightning is no good if I can't sync it with my Google calendars.
The error message in the console says:
"Zeitstempel: 30.07.2014 16:06:55
Warnung: getAttributeNodeNS() sollte nicht mehr verwendet werden. Verwenden Sie stattdessen getAttributeNS().
Quelldatei: resource://calendar/modules/calXMLUtils.jsm
Zeile: 32", calendar-unifinder is the script's name. I've no idea if that helps to solve the problem. It took me ten minutes to get the error console opened and this message extracted...
An update:
I switched to the distro Manjaro (based on Arch Linux), where I encounter the same problem. The calendar-unifinder.js script is reported to not to respond, while memory usage of TB increases continually (from about 200 MB to 2 GB and more). When stopping the script, memory usage decreases for a while, but then it starts to build up again, TB reports the script doesn't answer (same script, same line), it takes a while to make it stop, so I disabled it again. Calendar Tweaks is disabled, Lightning works just fine, but this addon doesn't.
