Status in Evolution: Unknown Status in Ubuntu MATE: New Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: New Status in evolution-data-server package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm running Ubuntu MATE 20.04; I stick with LTS for this system. I use Evolution for email and calendar. Tonight I got this message: ===== Failed to connect address book “guy.rouill...@gmail.com : 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 went to report this on the GNOME bug tracker and found this existing issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/1655 That issue was closed with this comment: ====== "Andre Klapper Issue found on latest Evolution in Debian 11 (3.38.3-1) That version is ancient and not maintained anymore by GNOME developers. Feel free to file a bug report in your distribution's issue tracker." The version in MATE is even older: 3.36.5-0ubuntu1 So apparently Evolution in MATE is currently not functional. We need to update to a later release. I will update to the newer LTS of MATE when it is released. --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.21 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: MATE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-10-05 (1212 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 18.04.1 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20180725) Package: evolution-data-server PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-92.103-generic 5.4.157 Tags: third-party-packages focal Uname: Linux 5.4.0-92-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to focal on 2020-05-17 (622 days ago) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/1959473/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
