Unfortunately, as seen in the first mail of this thread, there are
soname-changes in libedataserver, libcamel, libegroupwise and
libexchange-storage.

The libcamel-issue is particularly painful, as it got some libs which
don't have soname-changes. In the past versions this has lead to it
conflicting/replacing with previous versions of itself. We have now
fixed this, and don't see that there are any more issues that should
hold evo/e-d-s back. 

All packages that use libs with soname-changes was notified over a week
ago, and we would really like to go with this now, so that the
GNOME-team can get the rest of 2.14 in :)

If there is anything else you need to know/any more checks that need to
be done, we would really like to know exactly what we have to check.

Cheers :)
