Title:
  Add support for GOA in Syncevolution to make it work with Ubuntu Gnome

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  Fix Committed
Status in syncevolution package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  It seems Ubuntu does not package "providergoa.so" in Syncevolution. As
  a result there is no way to make it work with Gnome-Online-Accounts in
  Ubuntu-Gnome.

  Running

  syncevolution --print-databases \
  backend=carddav \
  username=goa:myusername at gmail.com \
  syncURL=https://www.googleapis.com/.well-known/carddav

  fails with “unknown identity provider 'goa' in
  'goa:myusername at gmail.com'”.

  Gnome Online Account integration can be provided either with a
  seperate binary package i.e "syncevolution-provider-goa" (just like it
  does with UOA) or in "syncevolution-libs-gnome" ( As pointed out by
  Patrick on mailing list: http://is.gd/U9CJCo)

  Syncevolution:1.5.x
