This is what I got when I ran Evolution from Terminal:

This is what I got when I ran "lsb_release -a; echo; apt-cache policy evolution" as advised:
david@david-desktop:~$ lsb_release -a; echo; apt-cache policy evolution

Title:
  Lost Evolution on upgrade

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Upgraded to 11.10 yesterday.
  Now Evolution will not launch though the icon is still in the launcher - it flashes as if preparing to launch but nothing happens. 
  Consequently cannot access my saved e-mails, address book or calendar.
  Thunderbird works to pick up new messages but I need my saved data.
  Tried to reinstall Evolution from Software Manager but got incompatibility message.
  Help please!
