Urgh, too late I manage to crack Gnome's search engine. This seems to

Perhaps not under gnome-contacts, but on jessie the official calendar
app seemed to be evolution, insofar as when I said "open calendar" from
the top bar to get at my contacts, evolution is what started up, and
that supported CardDA

Yep; my emails are in here in non-chronological order, took me a while
to discover the evolution workaround. It's a bit counterintuitive to
have to use what's ostensibly an email client to add calendar
Workaround: even though evolution no longer seems to be the official
contacts/calendar app, it can still be used to set up CardDAV accounts.
C.
Hmm,
Submitted bug #866795 too (contacts & CardDAV also broken), but suspect
that's a duplicate of this, and that the real problem is with
gnome-online-accounts, and is ultimately an unsolved upstream problem as
described here:
"Add separate components for CalDAV and CardDAV accounts"
https:/
Workaround: even though evolution no longer seems to be the official
calendar app, it can still be used to set up CalDAV account connections,
which then turn up in the gnome-calendar feed.
C.
Thanks very much for the rapid and helpful response!
Seems as if something might still be wrong though since searching for
neither "cursor" nor "blink" from All Settings gives Universal Access as
a result.
