I want to mirror a webdav directory to have local backups of it. Currently, I use
rm *
lftp <<__END__
open -u USER,PW https://example.com/remote.php/caldav/calendars/USER/kalender
mget /remote.php/caldav/calendars/USER/kalender/*.ics .
__END__
but re-downloading everything repeatedly is annoying.
What would be a suitable tool that mirrors a remote WebDAV directory to a local directory, including deleting removed files and adding new ones? (Should run on Linux and be Free Software.)
What you can do is mount the webdav directory using something like davfs and than use rsync to regularly sync your mirror directory.
davfs2, but I dislike that mounts have to be present in /etc/fstab or done by root.

PROPFIND failed: 404 Not Found); wdfs seems to be not packages; I think I’ll look at it another time.

lftp supports "mirror", have you tried that?
Otherwise there is a tool for this: http://www.re.be/webdav_sync/index.xhtml
