Mathieu, we could run the  counterpart of "evolution --force-shutdown"
in the preinst if the upgrade detects that we are upgrading from an old
version? I. e. kill all running e-a-n instances? There might be a more
elegant solution to detect that situation at runtime, but I don't think
we should waste too much time on this. After the upgrade you'll need to
reboot anyway.

** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu Precise)

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “evolution” source package in Precise:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  "update-manager -d" on an up-to-date (and almost vanilla) Lucid VM.

  After a while (while installing the upgrades), an error message appears whose 
text is unreadable (each char is a square).
  Same thing in the network manager applet.
  Please see the attached screenshot.

  nb: apport did not want to report this bug during the upgrade
  process... Ask me if you need any log.
