We've had the same problem today after an upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10:

"The Evolution calendar has quit unexpectedly. // Your calendars will
not be available until Evolution is restarted"

After a bit of trying to figure what was wrong by searching on internet,
on a hunch, I went and opened the calendar text file in
"~/.evolution/calendar/local/system/calendar.ics". I checked the
encoding of the file by clicking "File / Save As..." (which allows to
check the encoding), and I noticed it was ISO-8859-1.

I made a copy of "calendar.ics" just in case, and saved a copy after
forcing UTF-8 encoding in the "Save as..." dialog box. That solved the
problem (except that accented letters were mangled -- not a big deal).

Hope this works for other as well.
