Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution-data-server

With maverick, I cannot read my /var/mail/<user> spool file because
/usr/lib/evolution/camel-lock-helper-1.2 doesn't have the right
permissions. This is a reintroduction of http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=336755 which has a complete explanation.

On maverick:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/evolution/camel-lock-helper-1.2 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14640 2010-09-06 05:38 
/usr/lib/evolution/camel-lock-helper-1.2

but on lucid:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/evolution/camel-lock-helper-1.2
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root mail 9720 2010-06-25 05:51 
/usr/lib/evolution/camel-lock-helper-1.2

This is because of the following from 2.30.2.1-1:
  * debian/rules:
    - DEB_FIXPERMS_EXCLUDE switched to _evolution-data-server.

I'll attach a debdiff to fix this shortly. I would just fix it, but
since we are in final freeze I'll post the debdiff only at this time).
