What I did was to copy my "~/evolution" directory to a "~/not_evolution", and then ran Evolution 1.5. It successfully created a new "~/.evolution" directory containing the same information in a new format. I believe it didn't touch the old directory afterwards, and after using the Evolution 1.5 for a week or so I moved "~/evolution" and "~/not_evolution" into a "backups" directory.
