Bug description:
I'm running Ubuntu MATE 20.04; I stick with LTS for this system. I
use Evolution for email and calendar. Tonight I got this message:
=====
Failed to connect address book “[email protected] : Contacts”
Invalid request URI or header, or unsupported nonstandard parameter: Contacts
API is being deprecated. Migrate to People API to retain programmatic access to
Google Contacts. See
https://developers.google.com/people/contacts-api-migration.

I went to report this on the GNOME bug tracker and found this existing
issue:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/1655
That issue was closed with this comment:
======
"Andre Klapper
Issue found on latest Evolution in Debian 11 (3.38.3-1)
That version is ancient and not maintained anymore by GNOME
developers. Feel free to file a bug report in your distribution's
issue tracker."
The version in MATE is even older: 3.36.5-0ubuntu1
So apparently Evolution in MATE is currently not functional. We need to
update to a later release. I will update to the newer LTS of MATE when it is
released.
