Package: evolution-data-server Version: 20101111-1 Severity: important Evolution changed is file layout in release 2.32. The corresponding gconf keys are getting rewritten when starting Evolution 2.32.x for the first time.
If the older libecal/libebook libraries are still installed, they become unusable (as in: won't be able to open calendar or address book) because they don't know how to use the rewritten gconf keys and/or talk to the updated EDS daemon over D-Bus correctly. I received some bug reports from SyncEvolution users about this. Symptom: [ERROR] Error allocating calendar I believe they did a partial update of Debian Squeeze to unstable, where they kept Squeeze SyncEvolution+libecal/ebook (2.30) and updated Evolution to unstable or testing (2.32). Note that the Debian system where I generated this bug report has a self-compiled Evolution, thus the confusing version number (not sure whether I should have patched that manually). I suggest that EDS 2.32 should have a "conflicts with EDS libs < 2.32" to prevent such inconsistent system installations. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (950, 'stable'), (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
