Package: evolution
Version: 2.26.3-2+b1
Severity: normal

Upgrading evolution from Stable (2.22.x) to Testing (2.26.x) makes evo crash on upgrade 
of the summary format to sqlite3 database. The solution I found was to remove the *.ev-summary*
files from the $HOME/.evolution/mail/local/* folders (the imap folder does not seem to be
affected). This can be solved in some of the {pre,post}{inst} scripts. Heowver, the best 
solution would be that this issue is solved by upstream. A bug has been filed in bugzilla, 
#592249. Two bugs related to this one are #578535 and #559153:
