Bug Description

I'm using Ubuntu Online Accounts in my system, but if I try to configure a new
gmail-based account through the Evolution accounts wizard, at the end of the
process, nothing happens: evolution doesn't show my new account, and UOA is not
asking for the credentials (only the evolution configuration files mention it).

The only way I've found to use a gmail account (both with gmail.com and a
custom domain) in evolution is to configure it from UOA g-c-c panel.

I think that Evolution should at least notify the user that it's impossible to
add a such account, instead of just failing silently.

Can you check if it works if you install evolution-data-server-goa?

Oh, sorry I didn't include this with in comment but I tried and using GOA all works correctly.

Also, I've tested this both on my session and on a guest session.

Marco, can that bug be closed then? Can you check in trusty if things work as they should?
