        Hi,
okay, in that case the problem will be elsewhere than what I thought of
with KDE + MATE.

I suppose (I do not use Ubuntu), from Ralhp's links, you may install
evolution-dbg and evolution-data-server-dbg packages.

Hmm, either your text shell did not interpret `pidof evolution` as a
command, or you typed it with apostrophes, while those are not
apostrophes (I do not know the name for that character, it's usually
located, on an en_US keyboard, on the same key as a tilde (~), beside
number '1' and above tabulator keys. When written that way, the text
shell may execute that command and return its value, instead of keeping
it as a text. An alternative notation, which works with bash, is:

   -pid=$(pidof evolution)

Good, then the whole GUI shell is not stuck, which means you might be
able to switch to the text console while evolution is starting.
