Unfortunately the evolution-data-server client-side libraries seem to block the calling thread. This is a major problem as we must never ever block the main thread (doing so causes animations to flicker etc.). In the worst case, this problem causes login to hang (without falling back to fall-back mode) and in the best case it slows down login until a network connection is acquired. Additionally, in order to sanely use these evolution-data-server libraries, GConf has to be involved and GConf is not thread-safe. So it's not really feasible just moving the code to a separate thread. Therefore, move all calendar IO out of process and use a simple (and private) D-Bus interface for the shell to communicate with the out-of-process helper. For simplification, remove existing in-process code since internal interfaces have been slightly revised. This means that the shell is no longer using any native code for drawing the calendar dropdown. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641396 Signed-off-by: David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
