So basically this means that all the direct google interface support should be phased out, because it can't work anymore? But then also doesn't that mean that evolution is even more dependent on having gnome running? (The reason I didn't mention the evolution version, is that I am on a Debian Jessie, and their version doesn't seem to be any official. This is an old version (3.12.9 they say) but if you look more closely there seem to be a lot of patches applied.)
