Probably its a good idea? But I’m not sure if we want evolution in the
app list since it is segfaulting after adding an account on my end. So I
will see if I can patch it tonight to make it work.

Also, it complains like calendar about missing
org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Sources5 service. Is that expected?

Have a nice day,
