That's exactly where I got my version originally.  I did, just to be
sure, try copying that verbatim into session.local.conf then logging out
and back in, but it didn't help.

I even renamed the "default" factories that were being started, and now
I get an error when I try to access my contacts list:

        Detailed error message: Error calling StartServiceByName for
        org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.AddressBook:
        GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed
        to execute program /usr/lib/evolution/e-addressbook-factory:
        Success

That's to be expected I suppose but it clearly shows that dbus is not
interested in my customized servicedir settings.


How can I figure this out??!!
