Ankur Sinha is still having a problem:
This is the response from a developer on the desktop mailing list:

"If you look at the changelog from the package you'll see that the
evolution extension has been dropped. This is because the
gnome-python2-desktop bindings are written with gtk2 and evolution
needs gtk3. For all gtk3 apps you'll need to use the automatically
generated gobject-introspection bindings which evolution-data-server.

So ultimately just packaging it up won't fix the problem, you'll need
to have gtk3 support for it.

Here is the referred Changelog entry:

"* Sat Jul 28 2012 Kalev Lember <kalevlember@xxxxxxxxx> - 2.32.0-12 
- Obsolete the dropped gnome-python2-evolution subpackage 

* Fri Jul 27 2012 Colin Walters <walters@xxxxxxxxxx> - 2.32.0-11 
- Drop evolution bindings; they don't build against the latest EDS"

Does this mean the gtg evolution backend needs to be updated to use the
new evolution bindings? Should I file a separate bug for this?

Thanks again,
Warm regards,
Ankur
