I am using Evolution 3.12.9 on Debian Jessie. I have set up Gmail using Evolution, not Gnome Online Accounts (I am using the XFCE desktop).
Mail and calendar work fine, but I can't sync my Google contacts. I get a message saying Evolution can't open this address book, because of an invalid URI or unavailable server, resource not found, https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/AuthForInstalledApps (this is my translation of the Dutch message). When I go to this google url, it says: Important: ClientLogin has been officially deprecated since April 20, 2012 and is now no longer available. Requests to ClientLogin will fail with a HTTP 404 response. We encourage you to migrate to OAuth 2.0 as soon as possible. I assume that this issue was fixed in later versions of Evolution. When I was using Evo 3.22.x on Debian Stretch (testing version) I could sync my Gmail contacts in Evolution. Since Evolution is not in Debian backports, does this mean that I can't sync my Gmail contacts while I am using the current stable Debian release Jessie without installing a newer version of Evolution from outside the official Debian repositories?
