evolution-2.91.5-4.fc15.x86_64

The "Evolution's local mail format has changed." dialogue says:
"Please make sure there is enough disk space if you choose to migrate now."

It gives me absolutely no idea as to how I would figure out what room I need to do the migration. In this case, Evolution should really figure it out on its own. It knows how much mail I have, and how much room the migrated data would take, and how much room there is where the mail is.

Not worth fixing at this point.  Everyone should be on 3.x by now, or else migrating from 2.x to an older 3.x release that we can't do anything about.

2.x -> 3.10 is far too big a jump.

Closing as OBSOLETE.
