Thanks for testing. Indeed now that you mention it, e-d-s is tricky in
the sense that the dbus protocol has been changing between versions
which makes it difficult to build one client package that works on
different series or distributions. Also the thunderbird snap is strictly
confined so can't access the libraries from the system so we would need
to add those to the snap itself (but it wouldn't resolve the protocol
changing, some flatpak workaround that by providing their own e-d-s
service bundled...)

** Changed in: thunderbird (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Committed => Triaged

** Summary changed:

- Add  calendar-service interface to thunderbird snap yaml
+ evolution-data-server addon not working in the snap

Title:
  evolution-data-server addon not working in the snap

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Currently Thunderbird does not include the calendar-service interface
  provided by the core snap in its yaml file. The calendar-service
  enables  snap apps to communicate with the evolution-data-server.
  Though Thunderbird does not yet natively communicate with EDS, there
  exists an EDS Calendar Integration add-on for Thunderbird that allows
  synchronization of Thunderbird calendars with EDS. One immediate
  benefit is that users will be able to see calendar events listed in
  the time/date gnome widget.
