All of packages required in building Calendar App are not available in
required version in Ubuntu 16.04 repository.
So I have two options
1. Manually update-install all of them as well as dependencies of these
packages.(which is a tedious task)
2. Upgrade to 17.04 which is not long term support
The way I am doing it.
Get a fresh clone of the repository.
$ git clone https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-calendar
$ cd gnome-calendar
Run autogen.sh. If it gives any error, you may need to install the
package it points to.
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
Run the calendar application
$
Maybe gdbus-codegen, file which is throwing this error is unable to locate
codegen. I did sudo -H pip install codegen and terminal said it was already
installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages.
And gdbus-codegen is located in
I forgot to mention I am building it Ubuntu-Gnome distro 16.04.
