evolution will not start after upgrade

[zak wylde]

ubuntu 16.10

evolution: Installed: 3.22.1-0ubuntu2

Upgraded from 16.04 to 16.10 yesterday and now Evolution won't start so I can't get at my emails except on my phone.

Trying to start it in a terminal gives me:
'
[libprotobuf FATAL google/protobuf/stubs/common.cc:61] This program requires version 3.0.0 of the Protocol Buffer runtime library, but the installed version is 2.6.1. Please update your library. If you compiled the program yourself, make sure that your headers are from the same version of Protocol Buffers as your link-time library. (Version verification failed in "/build/libphonenumber-ClRhsc/libphonenumber-7.1.0/cpp/src/phonenumbers/phonemetadata.pb.cc".)

Does that suggest some conflict issue with the libprotobuf packages(s)?

thx.
