457466 - Serializing component produces incorrect ics (blank lines)

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 437418

(Calendar :: Internal Components, defect)

Description

[Bruno Browning]

When serializing calendar items I'm seeing an extraneous blank line after any line begining with "END:". Happens with caldav and ics providers both, wiretrace confirms that we're getting \r\n\r\n where we want \r\n

Most ICS parsers are tolerant enough to ignore blank lines, but others (notably Oracle) are not. This currently prevents us from PUTting or POSTing anything to the Oracle test server.

I think that's the same issue as reported in Bug 437418.
