its not funny.. its disturbing. Its doubly disturbing when people
can't remember exactly what they did and make accusations that there
is a problem in the software.
I am definitely not making accusations; I think the list is for discussion as well as definite bugs etc.

This could easily be local admin errors
for both people.
Very likely, but it's better to be sure, with hard evidence.

But we can't know for sure if you can't be sure as to
what actions you took to get into this situation.
Any hints why I can't find what I did in the result of the history command ? Or in any log files on disk ? Perhaps I'm simply looking in the wrong place ?

yum remove "evolution*"      will definitely cause a problem because
its an absolutely unwise thing to do. The evolution-data-server
package is a piece of commonly used library infrastructure for gnome
applications and is not a subpackage of the evolution application.
Thanks for explaining the dependencies, if it was evolution* I removed, then would I expect to see it in the yum log ? If not, why not ? Would this fact be a bug in itself (failing to log actions) ?

I'm not trying to waste people's time on personal fault finding, but rather get to the bottom of what went wrong for me and taxte, and secondly why on disk information doesn't seem to have tracked the change (important when it comes down to security and accountability when multiple people manage a machine).

Taxte, if you can possible describe exactly what you did to induce this situation, it would be of great assistance.

Thanks, DaveT.
