Title:
  evolution fails to retrieve Google contacts

Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Evolution uses outdated ClientLogin to authenticate with Google's servers, which does not work anymore, even with access for less secure apps enabled. Instead, evolution returns with an error like this one:
  Unable to open address book

  This address book cannot be opened.  This either means that an
  incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable.

  Detailed error message: Unable to connect to 'Contacts': The requested
  resource was not found:
  https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/AuthForInstalledApps
