Bug#969955: evolution-ews: should be installed with gnome-online-accounts

[Xavier Bestel]

Package: evolution-ews
Version: 3.36.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

On a fresh Debian install, using the GNOME desktop, if you run
gnome-online-accounts to create an Exchange identity (in my case
Office365), then launch Evolution to read your mails (or gnome-calendar
or anything else using this account) the Exchange account won't appear
anywhere, and there will be no error.

After a long search, the user may understand that the avolution-ews
package needs to be installed for this to work, but it's really not
obvious for non-experts.

So evolution-ews should be a dependency of gnome-online-accounts to
avoid silent errors.

Kind regards,

        Xav

PS: if you request so I can reopen this bug in gnome-online-accounts,
I was not sure where to file it.
