Just to summarize: The problem is: Evolution currently (even the git master development version) doesn't support OAuth authentications directly, only through GOA.
mmalmeida in comment #1 and comment #11 already pointed out how to solve this problem: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749974#c4 Yes it is a workaround but AFAIK, and also in the opinion of evo developers, there are no drawbacks in setting up GOA directly. So, set up a Google Online Account on your system, and all should work fine -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1459235 Title: Google Address book: Unable to open address book To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/1459235/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
