This is thanks to API disappearing from evolution-sharp, but the
version number hasn't changed.  (Really, Beagle probably doesn't even
*build* in Gutsy against this new version.)

Beagle bug is here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461307

Evo-sharp bug is here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452494

The latter bug contains a patch to Beagle which works around the
problem.  This really, REALLY needs to get into Ubuntu.

I should probably to an emergency 0.2.18 release to workaround this breakage.

Unfortunately Beagle is essentially unmaintained in Ubuntu, and
without a maintainer I would rather see the package pulled entirely
from the distro than ship in this current (broken) state.
