It may appear to work now, but it quite possibly won't in the future.
Evo is not designed to work as a shared data store (i.e. two versions of
Evo using the same stored data).  I think that it is purely coincidental
that in your usage pattern things haven't broken too severely.

It has been said many times on this list that it is unwise to muck about
with Evo's internal private storage locations because something will
break horribly if you do.

Also, in case anyone is reading this thread in the archives, I think it
is important that it be stated explicitly that you will break Evolution
if you try to do this.

If you want to share data between two versions of Evolution, then use
the correct tools for doing so - IMAP, LDAP and CalDAV on a server
somewhere.  It is the only reliable way of doing it.
