syncing Kontact w/Google Calendar?

I'm trying to sync my Kontact calendar with my Google calendar and came across some instructions for Kubuntu which say to just add a package called 'akonadi-kde-resource-googledata'.  I have searched the arch repostitory and haven't seen such a thing and am wondering if it exists.  If so can someone point me at it?

If not, has anyone been able to do this?  I used to have it working with GCalDaemon, but somehow that broke and I'd like to find a cleaner way.

thanks,

Re: syncing Kontact w/Google Calendar?

AFAIR, I did this by just adding a calendar from Google in iCal format. I may be wrong, and I'd suggest you to dig on calendar formats supported both by Google and Kontact.

There seems to be some people working on bringing gcaldaemon up to date, been following their forums. Something for you to consider as a future thing.

It´s on AUR: akonadi-googledata or akonadi-googledata-svn
