Title:
  evolution not installed after upgrade to oneiric

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

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!
