[Bug 965686] Re: Upgrade from lucid trigger an unreadable error dialog (font issue?)

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

I copied the squares from the broken dialog to gedit, the content of the dialog (in french sorry)
"""
Une erreur est survenue lors du chargement ou de l'enregistrement des informations de configuration de evolution-alarm-notify. Certains de vos paramètres de configuration ne fonctionneront peut-être pas correctement.
"""

dist-upgrade logs attached.
