Yes, I''ll try to backport the fixes; the don''t seem overly
intrusive.

A backported, compile-tested fix has been sent to #300815.

Hi all,

From http://merkel.debian.org/~joeyh/testing-security.html, I notice this
entry:

  evolution 2.2.1.1-1 needed, have 2.0.4-1 for CAN-2005-0806

Because evolution 2.2.1.1 is part of GNOME 2.10, which is not considered a
release candidate, this version of evolution has been blocked from testing
so that we don''t get blindsided by any twisty library issues at the
last
minute.  (It''s also not very close to getting into testing in its own
right.)  As a result, this bug probably needs to be fixed in evo 2.0 --
would anyone care to document it in the BTS, and possibly begin preparing a
fix that could be uploaded to testing-proposed-updates?

Thanks,
