evolution calendar doesn't show birthdays from ldap addressbook

Hello,

as the subject already describes I cannot find out how to make Evolution
display the birthdays stored in my ldap addressbook.

The addressbook itself is read without problems (i use the evolution
ldap scheme).

does anyone have a hint where to search or is evolution generally
incapable of reading the birthdays out of ldap sources?


greetings,
vitaminx

        Hi,
you couldn't do that, because a Birthdays & Anniversaries calendar is
using only local address books. You couldn't do that before 2.29.1:
