Package: evolution
Version: 2.32.2-1
Justification: causes serious data loss
Severity: critical
Tags: upstream

Dear Debian folks,


upgrading to Evolution 2.32.2 today I lost all my calendar entries.
Starting Evolution after the upgrade, `evolution --force-shutdown` was
run beforehand, in the beginning there were some migration messages.

	$ Migrating cached data
		mv /home/joe/.evolution/cache/http /home/joe/.cache/evolution/http
		mv /home/joe/.evolution/cache/tmp /home/joe/.cache/evolution/tmp
		rmdir /home/joe/.evolution/cache
		FAILED: Das Verzeichnis ist nicht leer (contents follows)
		        calendar
		        addressbook
	Migrating config data
	[…]

Messages in the mailer were shown correctly but there were no entries in
the calendar. Similar problems were reported for Evolution 2.32.{0,1} in
Gentoo [1] and upstream [2][3]. I will try to open a report upstream.

I hope that the calendars are still saved in the old location and can be
restored.


Thanks,

Paul
