I do not know about the background. I heard syncml is dead as no one of the
companies involved in establishing the protocol are interested in this
anymore. This, however, leaves us with one option less to express our
freedom of choice and even worse there is no possible way to synchronize
locally. I heard somehow that Windows/Android supposed to offer something
for local synchronization, but I have no way to test this.
My drama is that I was using N9 for 7y and it worked perfectly well ... now
I am constantly out of sync :|

>From what I see is that a lot of stuff is missing in Sailfish X that was
present in N9. From the services this is PC Suite, Obex File Transfer,
SyncML Server/Client etc.
I do not know if this is limitation by the kernel. I do not recall what was
the status of bluez5 and obex in 3.9. I do not know how obexd was compiled.

I see in the syncevolution logs following and I think something in the
background is missing - perhaps outside of buteo

You can try the attached patch against buteo-syncfw (master before commit
081a511) and tell me what you think.
I will look forward to clean up the buteo-sync-plugins changes and hopefully
source out the access to git soon. I am afraid I got the wrong access to
bugzilla instead of git :|

Also bear with me as I am not a pro-developer.

regards
