No unfortunately. What it turned out to be was that I needed a more recent version of libxml1 (in my ignorance, I thought this would be a dependency as it was a show stopper? Feel free to slap me down if I am wrong). I've upgraded my libxml2 and now Evolution starts fine, I have other problems (no crashing, just things like "compose" doesn't work) but the app appears to be working in most respects.
I'm upgrading a few other libs at the mo', so I'll see what difference they make :) The compose attempt spat this out: Bonobo-WARNING **: Could not open help topics file NULL for app evolution-message-composer Bonobo-WARNING **: Activating 'OAFIID:Bonobo_Moniker_Oaf' returned nothing Bonobo-CRITICAL **: file bonobo-moniker-util.c: line 501 (bonobo_moniker_client_resolve_default): assertion `moniker != CORBA_OBJECT_NIL' failed.
