My first symptom appeard when Evolution started to ask for my GAL password
every time I opened it. I tought it was IT staff messing with exchange.
Then, evolution started to crash after being opened.
I found this report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=953641 that
gave me the clue to look around gcr.
I tried to view my stored passords in Seahorse and I was unable to do that.
This fact let me discard evolution/exchange problems.
I focused on libgcr.
$ sudo aptitude remove --purge libgcr-3-1 and libgcr-3-common
The first option was to uninstall a lot of packages. I answered no until the
proposed action was downgrade the packages.
libgcr-3-1 and libgcr-3-common were downgraded from version
3.2.2-2ubuntu4.1 to 3.2.2-2ubuntu4
As sugested in the bug report, I killed gnome-keyring.
After this, Seahorse shown my stored passwords and Evolution worked just
as expected.
