The version of evolution in the proposed pocket of Focal that was purported to fix this bug report has been removed because one or more bugs that were to be fixed by the upload have failed verification and been in this state for more than 10 days.

Migrate to People API to retain programmatic access to Google Contacts. See https://developers.google.com/people/contacts-api-migration. I found the upstream bug report for this[0], which references the commit[1] that fixes it. However, that commit is in release 3.42.0, whereas Ubuntu 21.10 currently has 3.40.4-1. Is it possible to backport this commit so that Evolution will continue to work properly?
