Bug description:
* Impact
The google contacts integration with the GNOME component will stop working
since it relies on an API which is going to be shutdown
* Testcase
- use evolution
- add a google account
- go the contacts section
The contacts stored on the google account should be listed, no error
should be displayed
* Regression potential
The patch changes the google contact backend so any potential issue is likely
to be with contacts integration.
--------------------------------
I opened Evolution today and a red banner appeared on top with the
following message:
> Failed to connect address book “<[email protected]> : Contacts”
> Invalid request URI or header, or unsupported nonstandard parameter:
Contacts API is being deprecated. Migrate to People API to retain
programmatic access to Google Contacts. See
https://developers.google.com/people/contacts-api-migration.
I found the upstream bug report for this[0], which references the commit[1]
that fixes it.
However, that commit is in release 3.42.0, whereas Ubuntu 21.10 currently has
3.40.4-1. Is it possible to backport this commit so that Evolution will
continue to work properly?
