error: The server returned something vdirsyncer doesn't understand. Error message: InvalidXMLResponse("Couldn't find home-set.")
error: While this is most likely a serverside problem, the vdirsyncer devs are generally interested in such bugs. Please report it in the issue tracker at https://github.com/pimutils/vdirsyncer/issues

Research direction
Start by reproducing the two PROPFIND requests and comparing vdirsyncer's response parsing with the Kerio Connect XML shown in the report. Trace the path that raises InvalidXMLResponse("Couldn't find home-set"); done means the response is either handled correctly or the server incompatibility is clearly documented.
