Chapter 5. Conflict Handling

With shared resources (like Kolab), conflicts can arise when multiple users attempt to write to the same incidence at once. This occurs typically in Calendar events. When conflicts occur, users are presented with a dialog that allows them to choose which of the conflicts they want to save.

The conflict dialog allows the user to set-up a "never ask me again" condition whereby the conflict is resolved for them, using a preset choice option. For example, they may set things up so the newer of the two Calendar events are always selected.

But there's a problem: how does the user undo the "never ask again" setting? This is done by editing the user's share/config/kresources/kolab/kcalrc found in their $HOME/.kde directory.

First, stop Kontact. Then simply remove the AskPolicy and TakeMode settings from $HOME/.kde/share/config/kresources/kolab/kcalrc. Then restart Kontact.
