Bug Description

The calendar app does not display birthdays from my address book. They are stored in the contacts, so I guess they should be in the virtual Birthdays and Anniversaries calendar, but the calendar app does not display any events from that calendar.

Are you seeing the birthdays in the addressbook app on the device?
Or only in the web based view of the calendar at google?

I synced all my contacts and calendar from memotoo.com using the syncevolution command line.

I don’t see the birthdays in the addressbook app. But I can see that they are present in the local addressbook:

syncevolution --export --backend=evolution-contacts --luids <my-id>

The exported item contains a "BDAY" entry.
