The package manager will be able to deal with this correctly; that is,
once other packages requiring evolution shared libs are also removed
(then it should show up as no longer needed and removable with e.g. apt-
get autoremove). Gnome-panel, for example, is one of the packages which
require evolution-related packages (libecal and evolution-data-server
(as a Recommends) at least in this case).
Evolution or e-d-s packages themselves don't seem to have an issue, so I'm
marking this as Invalid.
However, I'm also re-opening the USC task because I feel this is instead
related to prompting the user about packages which are no longer needed and
removing them (analogous to Apt's autoremove).
In all cases, you should still be able to install thunderbird with no
adverse effects.
