[USN-615-1] Evolution vulnerabilities

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart Evolution to effect
the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research discovered that Evolution did not
properly validate timezone data when processing iCalendar attachments.
If a user disabled the ITip Formatter plugin and viewed a crafted
iCalendar attachment, an attacker could cause a denial of service or
possibly execute code with user privileges. Note that the ITip
Formatter plugin is enabled by default in Ubuntu. (CVE-2008-1108)
