This page should describe how to setup DAViCal on a Ubuntu-Server 9.10 Karmic-Koala machine.

Since we want to keept it as simple as possible we stick to the DAViCal packages which is maintained by Ubuntu.

* First lets find out with which package we will work:

 apt-cache policy davical 

{{{ Installed: 0.9.7-0

• Candidate: 0.9.7-0 Version table:
  • 0.9.7-0 0

    • 500 http://ramses.wh2.tu-dresden.de karmic/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status }}}

* Ok, lets install the package:

{{{ sudo aptitude install davical [sudo] password for yourusername: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Reading extended state information Initializing package states... Done The following NEW packages will be installed:

As next step we install postgrefs as the database.
