I noticed my last reply did not go to BTS... Today I re-checked by upgrading evolution again. ii evolution 3.38.2-1 amd64 ii evolution-common 3.38.2-1 all ii evolution-data-server 3.38.2-2 amd64 ii evolution-data-server-common 3.38.2-2 all ii evolution-plugins 3.38.2-1 amd64
I also noticed that bwrap is no longer SUID root (and newer modification time). Re-installing bubblewrap did not change it. # ls -la /usr/bin/bwrap -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59680 Jan 3 15:13 /usr/bin/bwrap The observation of the issues has changed slightly with the new evolution version: Now no window appears at all when selecting "New message" (in fact, nothing appears to happen). I tried again with bwrap SUID root (and a reboot for good measure) to no change in behavior. Back to 3.36.4-2.
