fixed 660084 3.2.2-1
thanks

Hello,

the reported bug #660084 evolution: Evolution crashes on startup was
caused by the propriety graphic driver nvidia in version 295.20-1.
With the latest update to version 295.33-1 the problem is fixed
(confirmed see bug report).
The problematic version 295.20-1 is still in wheezy. So if you run
wheezy upgrade your nvidia driver to 295.33-1 from sid or use the
workaround from Fabrizio Regalli:

- open terminal and run 'gdb evolution'
- once gdb is running (gdb) type 'run evolution'
- open a new terminal and type 'evolution'
