Since 20041203 my nightly builds from CVS have been unusable. On startup, an
empty multiweek view appears, and nothing is functional.

Is this related to the firebird landing, perhaps?

I'm using the built-in calendar in the appsuite.

I will upload a screenshot.

going back to the last working build, 20041202, and everything works perfectly,
starting up with my usual view full of events.

I am having the same problem with my self-built Seamonkey. When the calendar
first loads, I get the exception:

Error: gICalLib.addCalendar is not a function
Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendarManager.js
Line: 461

The calendar is permanently stuck in Multiweek mode, and does not display month
names or the numbers for the days of the month.

If I try to create a new event, I get:

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005
(NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIWritablePropertyBag.getProperty]"  nsresult: "0x80004005
(NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame ::

anonymous :: line 109"  data: no]
Source File:

Line: 109

If I try to save the event, I get:

If you're building from the trunk, this is expected.
We're actively working on a major refactoring of Sunbird's backend. 
You can try building from the Sunbird 0.2 branch for a working version.

The bugspam monkeys have been set free and are feeding on Calendar :: Sunbird Only. Be afraid for your sanity!
