Merge request for ubuntu/jammy proposed at Salsa:

  https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/evolution/-/merge_requests/5

Please note that, for Gmail, I could not get the Google Authentication Request to work and thus could not access my mail. After allowing Evolution access, it gets stuck in "Requesting access token, please wait..." or gets past that but the account item in the folder list shows "failed to connect". However, that is both for 3.44.2-0ubuntu1 and 3.44.3-0ubuntu1, so this is not a problem introduced by the latter, and other accounts such as Microsoft's work fine.

To be clear: in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/1976623/comments/3 it's mentioned that adding a GMail account doesn't work for 3.44.2-0ubuntu1 and 3.44.3-0ubuntu1, but the version of Evolution in Jammy is 3.44.1-0ubuntu1.

Does adding a GMail account work there? Is this a known regression from what's in Jammy currently?

Sorry, I got confused in the sea of version numbers, so my previous comment is off the mark in its assumptions.

It seems we didn't land any Jammy SRU for 3.44.2 onwards since the one in jammy-updates is 3.44.1-0ubuntu1.

Since adding a GMail account does work for me in 3.44.1-0ubuntu1, it is a regression indeed.

Okay, I tested again and I cannot reproduce that #3 bug in neither 3.44.1-0ubuntu1 nor 3.44.4-0ubuntu1[1].

However, there is a problem in Xorg for both versions: Two identical dialog windows pop up for Oauth2 authentication when including a new account. It is a non-blocking bug though, because responding to either window causes the mail to be correctly retrieved.

Interestingly, interrupting Evolution (i.e. Ctrl+C) causes one and only one of those pop-up windows to survive.

Since it only happens on Xorg, it could be related to LP: #1983794.

Hello Nathan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted evolution into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/3.44.4-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

As I hadn't used Evolution for a while I made sure that all three accounts that I have set up were working correctly. I enabled -proposed and upgraded evolution and its dependencies to version 3.44.4-0ubuntu1.

As per the text case I can confirm that with the updated version of evolution I can send and receive emails and that HTML emails are displayed correctly.

Bug fix verified.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for evolution has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.
