I don't follow. You are suggesting that SyncEvolution in
Testing/Unstable should have a depends >= 2.30, <= 2.32, right?

How is that going to help a user who has Evolution and SyncEvolution
installed on Squeeze and then does a partial update of just Evolution
with "aptitude install -t testing evolution"?

If I'm not completely mistaken, aptitude will complete leave
SyncEvolution alone and installed in the Squeeze version together with
the old libecal/ebook, thus leading to a broken system.
