Yet another follow-up: I did a 'pkill -9 evolution' after which I could start evolution.
After a logout/login evolution would not start. After a pkill it did. Removing the evolution background servers from the session startup cleared the problem. I could then also start evolution automatically at session startup. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1748748 Title: Evolutiion fails to start.
