[Bug 1628792] [NEW] Add carddav scope to google-contacts.service (Yakkety)

[Khurshid Alam]

Public bug reported:


It seems google-contacts.service file Google Contacts API (Gdata)
https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/ which is NOT same as CardDav. As a
result when some application( ex. Syncevolution) tries to access it
(through oauth2), it gives “authentication failed error”.

For example, running following command:

'''

SYNCEVOLUTION_DEBUG=1 syncevolution --print-databases –daemon=no\

loglevel=2 backend=carddav username=uoa:3,google-contacts\

syncURL=https://www.googleapis.com/.well-known/carddav

'''
gives following error:

        “𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗣𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗗: 𝗡𝗲𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝟭: 𝟰𝟬𝟯 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗯𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻, 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗿𝘆”

Adding the carddav scope solves the issue.
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/carddav'

Note: 

1. Ubuntu already enabled carddav in google developer console
(lp:1433943)

2. It requires to grant access twice; one for UOA and one for Evolution
(server side). Then only it works
