[Bug 423633] [NEW] Repeating tasks in iCal feed go on forever

[Chris Boyle]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: lightning-extension

I have an iCalendar feed from rememberthemilk.com with a couple of
repeating tasks in it. An instance of each of these tasks appears on
their DTSTART date, and continues to infinity, showing up on every day.
The next instance starts on DTSTART + interval (2 weeks), and also
continues to infinity alongside the first instance. And so on, making
the calendar unusable. All the other tasks are non-repeating and appear
correctly, only on their DTSTART. Here are the problematic tasks:

BEGIN:VTODO
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20090625T123451
SUMMARY:black bin & black box out
UID:FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF61912882
LAST-MODIFIED:20090825T200354Z
DTSTAMP:20090825T200354Z
SEQUENCE:5297342
DESCRIPTION:Time estimate: none\nTags: none\nLocation: Normality\n\n
DUE:20090908T235900
RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=2
END:VTODO

BEGIN:VTODO
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20090625T123622
SUMMARY:green bin & blue box out
UID:FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF61913012
LAST-MODIFIED:20090902T214751Z
DTSTAMP:20090902T214751Z

DESCRIPTION:Time estimate: none\nTags: none\nLocation: Normality\n\n
DUE:20090915T235900
RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=2
END:VTODO

(I actually hoped to see these and all other tasks on their due dates,
not start dates, but that's a separate issue).
