Bug Description

Release: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS

Package version: evolution_3.18.5.2-0ubuntu3.2

What I expected to happen: When started with “--debug=error_log”, evolution should start normally and write an error log to “error_log”.

What happened instead: “Unknown option --debug” and exit.

The manpage lists the “--debug” option, the output of “evolution --help” does not.

Upstream Evolution has no manpage, as far as I know. Is this an Ubuntu downstream change?
