Title:
  proxy incorrectly handled, resulting in google address books not
  loading

Status in “evolution-data-server” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution-data-server

  If you set an HTTP proxy in the system/preferences/network proxy
  dialog box, but do not set https/ftp/socks proxies (empty strings,
  zero ports, and do not tick "use the same proxy for all protocols",
  then evolution data server will not be able to connect to things like
  google addressbooks (which require https).

  Ideally, e-d-s should detect empty strings and not set a proxy for
  https, what would be acceptable would be to report the actual error
  through to the user more effectively. Currently we get "Other error"
  as the error for any issue with the google address book backend.
