django-evolution does not work and prevents django syncdb from working

[Alex Wauck]

Binary package hint: python-django-evolution

I installed and enabled django-evolution. Now this happens:
>>> ./manage.py syncdb
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./manage.py", line 11, in <module>
    execute_manager(settings)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 438, in execute_manager

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'EvolutionOperations'

A quick Google search suggests that this is caused by the version of django-evolution in use being incompatible with django 1.2. Both were installed from the Ubuntu repositories (up-to-date as of Jan 11, 2011).
