Control: severity -1 important > Dec 10 13:17:40 lavaine kernel: [ 3324.799650] gnome-shell-cal[2352]: > segfault at 100000812 ip 00007f2eeafd0324 sp 00007ffd0bc3d6d0 error 4 in > libical.so.2.0.0[7f2eeaf8d000+5e000] To explain what's happening here: gnome-shell links directly against libical (here against v2) and also against libecal (from evolution-data-server). evolution-data-server was updated to link against libical v3. The result is, that gnome-shell was now loading libical2 (directly) and libical3 (indirectly via libecal) into its address space. This is not supported and leads to the crash.
I decided to add a Conflicts: libical2 to libecal (see #884012) to avoid this situation. So from my POV, this bug can be closed. Other DDs mentioned on #debian-devel though, that this conflicts should be added directly to libical3. I'm thus leaving this bug report open for further discussion but downgrade the severity, as the immediate issue (the segfault in gnome-shell) is addressed by #884012.
