[Evolution] Bug#822778: evolution-ews NTLM authentification problem after samba upgrade

[noname@]

Package: evolution-ews
Version: 3.18.5-1
Severity: normal
Tags: newcomer

Dear Maintainer,

A system-update causes evolution-ews to fail. Each attempt to 
connect to the EWS server brought up a password dialog but the
connection could not be retrieved anymore.

Other symptoms and a more accurate description
including solutions can be found in

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1327072

My personal workaround was finally:
replacing /usr/bin/ntlm_auth with the version from
winbind_4.2.10+dfsg-0+deb8u2_amd64.deb (jessie)

The better solution is of course to patch evolution-ews as done
by the Fedora team.

best regards
