I wonder whether the problem might be related in any way to the gnome online-accounts package not being installed. I am using Evolution 3.2.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Dell Optimplex SX 270, Pentium 4 2 MB RAM). Deleting e-addressbook-factory did not work for me.
What *did* work is installing the package gnome online-accounts and allowing Evolution access to my Google account. Te effect now is that Evolution "sees" my contacts and takes (as it should) mail addresses addresses from the Gmail contacts. That is a lot better then just seeing a unhelpful message like "Cannot open book: Source already loaded!" Of course it remains to be seen whether the addresses actually get synced with GMail contacts, I don't see that happen at the moment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883417 Title: Evolution 3.2.0 in UBUNTU 11.10 (Syncho google contacts) Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool: Incomplete Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The synchronisation with google contacts is not working fine.
