[Opensync-users] Re: Contact conflicts

[Guillaume P. <gpo...@gm...>]

Updates:
- Stepping through the irmc-obex connection code sometimes permits to
establish the connection. There seems to be a timing issue...
- I found the original VCards that spawn the conflict (see below).
There are quite a few differences. The entry on the phone has been
generated by a previous sync (with opensync), so I guess the phone
will never store the REV attribute, for instance. As VCard may or may
not be the native storage format on both devices, it might well be
impossible to have them both exactly equal. How will OpenSync handle
this issue?


VCard from KDE-PIM:
