[Bug 1406200] [NEW] Add support for GOA in Syncevolution to make it work with Ubuntu-Gnome (Vivid)

 

Public bug reported:

It seems Ubuntu does not package "providergoa.so" in Syncevolution. As a
result there is no way to make it work with Gnome-Online-Accounts in
Ubuntu-Gnome.

Running

syncevolution --print-databases \
backend=carddav \
username=goa:myusername@xxxxxxxxx \
syncURL=https://www.googleapis.com/.well-known/carddav

fails with “unknown identity provider 'goa' in
'goa:myusername@xxxxxxxxx'”.

Gnome Online Account integration can be provided either with a seperate
binary package i.e "syncevolution-provider-goa" (just like it does with
UOA) or in "syncevolution-libs-gnome" ( As pointed out by  Patrick on
mailing list: http://is.gd/U9CJCo)

Syncevolution:1.5.x
