Description Jeremy Bicha 2016-08-08 18:27:53 UTC 
The fix for Bug 749974 "Use OAuth2 for Google sources" added a new dependency on webkitgtk-3.0 but webkitgtk-3.0 is deprecated. Please use webkit2gtk-4.0 instead.

https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/commit/?id=3ed3588

gnome-online-accounts uses webkit2gtk-4.0 since 3.18:

https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2016/02/01/on-webkit-security-updates/

In Ubuntu 16.10, webkitgtk-3.0 is in "universe" so the evolution-data-server package there cannot use it as a dependency.

I guess the work for this has been done for evolution-data-server but it is waiting for someone to port evolution to webkit2. See Bug 751588.

Thanks for a bug report. You are right, the parts for the evolution-data-server are ready in the bug #751588, everything is waiting for the evolution itself, which will happen shortly, for the 3.21.90 release. There cannot be eds ported and evo not, or vice versa. As this is already there, I'm marking this as a duplicate of the older bug report.
