Subject: [PATCH] services/gnome: Include Evolution by default to fix calendar
 notifications.
Date: Fri,  2 May 2025 10:51:50 +0900

This increases the GNOME closure by about 81 MiB (from 4442 MiB to 4524 MiB),
as can be seen via the command:

   guix shell --no-grafts gnome -- sh -c 'guix size $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT'

* gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-essential-extras): [evolution]: Register
package.

Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/78103>.
