[Evolution] Evolution on Chromebook linux issues

[Richard Roberts <richardcalgary anewhorizon ca>]

I had installed evolution in the spring of this year and all worked fine until sometime in the summer when it broke. 
 

I cleared the linux environment and re-installed the application however it still does not work.
Evolution version :  3.22.6-1+deb9u2

It launches and then aborts with no messages displayed.

I am currently on chromeos Version 76.0.3809.136 (Official Build) (64-bit)

from a terminal it reports version info
Linux penguin 4.19.44-04937-gd773af751792 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug 8 21:43:29 PDT 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Would appreciated any thoughts or information on similar problems with chromeOS.

Regards
Richard
