Thank you for your report. To me it sounds like a bug in the software provided upstream or a misconfiguration in your system [3]. Does the same source work for you on another distribution? If it works on other distributions, but not on Gentoo Linux, I suggest to discuss this problem on a related mailing list, forum or IRC channel. I have had very good experience on the Gentoo IRC [1], of course there are also forums and mailing lists. [2] I will close this bug here, because I do not see a relation to the gentoo ebuild or the way Gentoo handles this special software package. Please provide more information, if I am wrong. Please create one ticket per package next time. [1] https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/irc-channels/ [2] https://www.gentoo.org/support/ [3] look up the upstream forums search in their bugtracker

For the stable box, google contacts works fine with gnome-contacts. For the experimental box, the latest packages do not work with google contacts. May be how the new evolution-data-server package builds support for google. I noticed significant differences on how the ebuild enable support for google.
