The problem still persist in Ubuntu 17.10. Installing gnome-control-
center and evolution didn't work for me.
When I try to add online calendar (Settings -> Add -> From Web) in "Add
calendar" dialog, button "Add" stays disabled when I enter URL.
If I download the calendar and add it via "From file" method, everything works.

Title:
Nothing happens when trying to add online calendar
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Confirmed
Status in gnome-calendar package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open gnome-calendar
2. Open calendar settings
3. Click on "Click to set up" on any of the online accounts.
Nothing happens. There is no error message or anything. The gear icon
next to "Online accounts" header also does nothing.
I killed the calendar and ran it from command line. Clicking on any of
these buttons outputs:
$ gnome-calendar
** (gnome-calendar:5108): WARNING **: Couldn't open settings: Failed
to execute child process "gnome-control-center" (No such file or
directory)
Package gnome-control-center is not installed. If it's required for
calendar to work, it should be a dependency. At least there should be
warning dialog that explains this.
Tested on 16.04 on Cinnamon desktop.
