Public bug reported:

Since an ubuntu software update two days ago (see below) evolution
(3.44.4-0ubuntu2) does not start anymore on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS.

Starting evolution in bash after a fresh reboot yields the error message

(evolution:6796): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:15:10.207: Getting screensaver
status failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.gnome.Shell.ScreenShield was not provided by any .service files

** (evolution:6796): WARNING **: 11:15:10.468: WEBKIT_FORCE_SANDBOX no longer 
allows disabling the sandbox. Use WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX_THIS_IS_DANGEROUS=1 
instead.
bwrap: Can't mkdir parents for /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf: Read-only file 
system

after which the software hangs and no window appears.

The second message points to a workaround.  Stopping evolution with
ctrl-C and running in bash

WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX_THIS_IS_DANGEROUS=1 evolution

makes evolution run as normal. Of course, this feels like it's a bit
dangerous.

Noteworthy was also that after the update (while running evolution) the
buttons (such as for "Reply") did not seem to work any more.


For ease of debugging, I'm copying below the log of the last software updates. 
The problem started after 09:03.
