cl-lib contains elisp equivalents of some Common Lisp macros, I think
this is Emacs 24 specific.
ical-event was developed using Emacs 24, so compatibility with any other
version or flavor of Emacs would be purely accidental.
I want to eventually get the feature in Gnus proper, so if you have a
look at
https://github.com/jtatarik/gnus/blob/icalendar/lisp/gnus-icalendar.el
you should find a newer version of the code with some of the Emacs24
specifics removed.
I have not tested the code against any other Emacs versions/flavors yet,
so I cannot guarantee it will work for you immediately, but cl-lib is
not a dependency anymore. eieio still is, however, and if it is not
shipped with your Emacs you will want to install the cedet package
http://cedet.sourceforge.net/
I would be happy if you could give it a try with other Emacs versions
and let me know the results.
The gnus-icalendar.el file needs fairly recent version of Gnus (uses
gmm-flet from gmm-utils.el).
My current setup is like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(require 'gmm-utils "~/repos/gnus/lisp/gmm-utils.el") ;; gmm-flet not in emacs
;; proper yet
(require 'gnus-icalendar "~/repos/gnus/lisp/gnus-icalendar.el")
(gnus-icalendar-setup)
(setq gnus-icalendar-org-capture-file "~/org/notes.org")
(setq gnus-icalendar-org-capture-headline '("Calendar"))
(gnus-icalendar-org-setup)
#+END_SRC
gnus-icalendar.el and the old ical-event are mostly identical with
regard to functionality. The one big improvement in gnus-icalendar is
you can refile your org events after capturing them, and gnus will still
find them.
Once again, I would be happy to hear about your experience when running
under Emacs 23 or XEmacs.
Thanks,
Jan
