No, its provides are fine. The problem is that they are later versions than those provided by the previous release, e.g. libecal-1.2.so.6 instead of libecal-1.2.so.3 libedata-cal-1.2.so.5 instead of libedata-cal-1.2.so.1 All the packages that depend on these libraries (e.g. gnoem-panel, evolution-connector, evolution-sharp) need to be rebuilt against the updated evolution-data-server, which should not have been released until that had happened.
