This bug affects me as well. This is that 0Auth password sign in thing
that Google said they would no longer support from May 5th going
onwards. I've know that in the past new releases of Evolution are
normally not included unless you upgrade to a newer distribution (of
your distro) or unless you find a package maintainer that has a newer
version of Evolution, or unless you install the files yourself. (all in
my experience)

You're supposed to be allowed to authorize "less secure devices"  ('ll
put the procedure below) but I've got that enabled and it has no effect
on Evolution, so I'm thinking that this has more to do with the change
that Google has done to their contacts, perhaps it's a new location,
link, or connection method.

To enable Less Secure Devices:
Sign in to Gmail (or any other Google product)
Click your user picture 
Select Account
Select Sign in & Security
Scroll down and set Allow less secure apps to ON
