Just as a counterpoint, I upgraded from 2.30 to 2.32 on my Ubuntu 10.10 system (although I used my own build of 2.32, not the PPA) and all my data was migrated successfully and reappeared in its expected new location. It appears there was something unique (or at least not common) about your system. It would be great if we could figure out what that was but it seems unlikely at this point. It's very surprising that data was removed; the migration consists basically of directory renames; nothing is removed during the migration as I understand it. I wonder if Matt has any thoughts about this. I do think it would be good for Evo to make a backup of the data before migrating it; even just a tarball left somewhere would be useful in extremis. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
