[Evolution] evolution will not start again after update

[Benoit LANGLAIS <Benoit Langlais univ-nantes fr>]

hello folks,

I updated some days ago evolution and evolution-data-server to the 
latest 3.12.11 version as shown below:

Transaction performed with:
    Installed     rpm-4.11.3-17.el7.x86_64

@base/$releasever
    Update                        3.12.11-37.el7.x86_64 @base

(I am using a centos el7 distrib)

Since this update I am not able to use evolution anymore. Whenever I 
start it from a xterm I got the following message

evolution :

** (evolution:31412): CRITICAL **: categories_icon_theme_hack: assertion 
'filename != NULL && *filename != '\0'' failed

(evolution:31412): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to register client:

** (evolution:31412): WARNING **:

The icon appears correctly in my iconbox (I'm using fvwm2) but I can not 
make it active or anything. And I have no other choice than a kill 
command to kill it.

any ideas, or better, any help to sort this out would be appreciated!

Regards

Benoit
