This seems to be a known problem:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/davical/+bug/479138

The bugreport refers to a fix in davical 0.9.7.1 which isnt in the 
repository (yet). As a (temporary) sollution, you could install one of 
the debs from the davical sourceforge page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/rscds/files/

For some reason there is no 0.9.7.1 version in the list, but 0.9.7.2 up 
to 0.9.7.6 are in the list, so you could try those.

After downloading the .deb file, you can install it by using:
dpkg -i davical_0.9.7.2-0_all.deb

I hope this works for you (I havent tested).
