Changing calendar preference from Evolution to Osmo in Gnome Shell

[StephenH]

Where do I look to change the calendar preference in Gnome Shell from Evolution to Osmo? I have uninstalled Evolution and installed Osmo. I have looked in all of the settings available in System Settings, Tweak Advanced Settings, Alacarte, and Configuration Editor (gconf-editor), but I am obviously overlooking something.

Is it safe to delete all references to evolution when I find them in gconf-editor? I assume I would have to do that as root since it does not seem like trying to do so as a regular user works.

What I want to do is when I click on the date/time on the top bar and select "Open Calendar", Osmo will open. Right now I just get a message: "Execution of 'evolution' failed: command not found." Of course it would fail since I removed evolution. However, I can't seem to find out where to change it to look for Osmo instead.

Thanks.

I may be wrong, but it was my impression that integration with Evolution was the only thing officially supported.

If something else is supported I would love to know the ins-and-outs of getting that set up!

Try installing and running the dconf-editor. Then drill down to:

org>gnome>desktop>applications>office>calendar.

No guarantees, but it's worth a try.

Unfortunately, it did not work. You were right though, it was worth a try.

Edit:

I found the solution. It is to edit the /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/dateMenu.js file and change the reference to evolution there to osmo. Once the shell is restarted (alt-F2/r), it launches Osmo instead of complaining that evolution could not be found.
