        Hi,
it's the other way around. The evolution-etesync can be built for
Evolution version 3.38 and later.

You simply install the plugin/module package, in this case
evolution-etesync, and if everything is fine it's all. To add your
EteSync account go to Edit->Accounts->Add->Collection Account and left
it lookup for the EteSync account for you (you should see a checkbox
for it there).

It's sometimes required to restart the background evolution-data-server
processes (and Evolution itself) to have the newly installed plugins
loaded, which can be done with: evolution --force-shutdown , but I do
not expect it being the problem.
