Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

new packages for evolution-common are version 2.24.3-0ubuntu1, however evolution itself is still 2.24.2-0ubuntu1 for x64. trying to do apt-get I get the following error:

$ sudo apt-get install evolution
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  evolution: Depends: evolution-common (= 2.24.2-0ubuntu1) but 2.24.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

after playing a bit with trying to get this to work, looking at what I used to have, I get the following:

$ dpkg -l|grep evol

Been using linux in a windows environment, like many others, I guess, so this problem became a real killer...

Thank you for opening this bug and helping making Ubuntu better.

This is a temporary situation: the package build systems are busy, and Evolution has not yet been completely built for the AMD64 (and other) architectures. Currently *only* evolution-common is built, and that causes the rest of evolution to be removed...

You can track the status of the build process here: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+builds?build_text=evolution&build_state=pending

Also, please notice that this affects the intrepid-proposed repository only; disabling this repository on Synaptic, and reloading the repositories data will allow you to revert to Intrepid-base Evolution; other options may also be pursued.

Given that, I am closing this bug report invalid. Please re-open if you do not agree.
