The Evolution program crashed after I went to new calender and selected google. I then put in my google information so that I could have my google calender synced with evolution (version 3.2.0). Then all of a sudden an error message came up saying: "no backend factory for google vevent"

1) Ubuntu 11.10
2) Evolution version 3.2.0

4) Instead an error came up saying: no backend factory for google vevent

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Hi, you don't have to thank me, I should be thanking you and the rest of the
ubuntu team for giving me a OS that works and continuously evolves. Its the
greatest operating system I have ever used and surpasses windows and Mac OS
by far, I just hope that in the future every school and place of learning
can make all there computers Ubuntu based, because Ubuntu teaches its users
how to grow and learn as Ubuntu grows and learns.

Now sorry for my ranting but I truly feel that Ubuntu has saved me from the
lock and money spending that windows and other corporate commercialized
products had on me. I actually fixed the problem that was occurring, I just
went into Ubuntu software center typed in "vevent" and clicked search and it
gave me technical support programs as a result and I clicked on one that had
a file name: ical and etc. In it and then restarted evolution and when I
restarted my evolution program, a request from the evolution program came up
asking for my Google calendar password and after putting in the password, my
Google calendar became synched in evolution; which is great because now when
on Ubuntu I can just click on the date time applet included in gnome 3 and
can see my schedule and reminders.

PS: do you still want me to report the new bug with the instructions you
gave me above even though I fixed the problem because I can if u want?
