Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I am new to Ubuntu. To keep things simple, I try to start Evolution from
both the panel and Applications-->Internet-->Evolutions Mail and see
"Starting Evolution Mail" at the bottom of the screen for about 5 to 10
seconds, then it disappears. That's it. I looked at other questions but
do not see anything similar. I tried to open it in terminal and get
this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ evolution

(evolution-2.10:6620): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: instance of invalid non-
instantiatable type `(null)'

(evolution-2.10:6620): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_signal_connect_data:
assertion `G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE (instance)' failed

(evolution-2.10:6620): e-data-server-CRITICAL **: e_source_group_peek_base_uri: 
assertion `E_IS_SOURCE_GROUP (group)' failed
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

On the more complicated side, I installed Ubuntu 7.04 the other day.
Everything worked fine. I saw some update and unfortunately updated to
Ubuntu 7.10 and things went wacky. A bunch of stuff no longer worked
right. Evolution would open but the send/receive was not operational. I
am not sure whether this was before or after the update.

I do not know if this may be relevant. I set Evolution to leave mail on
the server. I created a couple folders in my Evolution inbox and saved a
couple messages there. I went into Windows and retrieved my email there
where it gets deleted from the server. It may have been after that when
send/receive stopped working.

Anyway, there were too many other problems in 7.10. I uninstalled Ubuntu
in  Windows and reinstalled 7.04 from wubi-save. Things appear to be
working OK now except that Evolution does not open. I believe it was
after the Ubuntu reinstallation that it would not open at all.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
