Bug Description

evolution should not be linked with -Bsymbolic-functions as it relies on the fact that some function calls (e.g. to eab_contact_display_get_type()) go through the PLT.

See also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/831308/comments/7 and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594473 (evolution doesn't seem to support building with -Bsymbolic-functions).

This seems to be fixed for current versions of evolution-ews: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-ews/3.12.7-1

This affects both evolution 3.2 (in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) and 3.10 (in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS).

Thanks, I will upload this change to the in-development release (Vivid, to become 15.04) now.

Could you prepare the description of bug #813308 according to the Stable Release Update template please? I will then be able to propose the same fix for Ubuntu's stable releases (12.04, 14.04, 14.10). That's <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure> point #3 under "Procedure".
