GNOME Calendar Snap Doesn't Connect/Show Calendars From GNOME Online Accounts

The GNOME Calendar Snap doesn’t seem to be connecting with my online accounts (GNOME Online Accounts using Google(Gmail)). This is consistent across 19.10 and 20.04(dev branch) for me.

installed:          3.30.0

I do get these errors when running snap run gnome-calendar, and they seem to be potentially relevant.

Perhaps @hellsworth or @kenvandine know something about this?

Yes there is a know problem with running evolution data server in the snap. @kenvandine can provide more on the technical details.

Thanks for the input! I’ll keep an eye on it for now. If there’s any testing or logs I can provide for anyone that might be helpful in the future, I’m happy to provide any :smiley:

Facing the same issue. Is there a solution?

Thanks!
