Since I stumbled over and fixed the new window alarm
problem. Maybe I can help to reproduce it.
Some questions,
Did you do a killev before you upgraded? Closing evolution will not stop
the alarm process, and can be a problem while updating. I don't know how
red-carpet, if used, will handle it but it should generate an error.
Somebody mentioned on the list that they ended up with different (2)
versions installed, did you check for that?
Do you shut down and restart your system every night, or let it run with
the alarm process still up, again closing evolution will not stop it.
How many calendar windows are you using when the problem occurs?
Is the system bios time set correctly, or do you or some process
sync/change the time after start up.
Can you run a patched, for debug information, of evolution-alarm-notify?
If possible 1.2.1, sorry I need the spell checking capabilities of 1.2.1
and therefore will not use 1.2.2. But my guess is for debugging it
wouldn't matter, since we just want to see why the alarm triggers
(again).
