Public bug reported:
I have upgraded from 21.10 to 22.04 beta and am trying to set-up
Evolution.
Right now I am trying to add my Gmail account using the new account
wizard. I insert my name and gmail address and then Evolution tries to
connect to the GMail authorization page to allow me to enter my
password.
This opens in a new window and I would expect to see a small embedded
web page where I enter my GMail credentials. Instead the window opens
but where the embedded web page should be is instead just a small box
showing a URL to the Google service. This URL shortly disappears and I
am unable to proceed. All I can do is cancel out of the wizard and the
account never gets added.
One thought which may be relevant is I recently had MS Edge installed
and previously I have been able to add an account. I have recently
removed this and so instead have just the snap of Firefox installed.
Might there be a dependency of Evolution on a browser to provide this
web view, and in which case might it not be able to get it from the snap
of Firefox? Just a guess.
Thanks.
