Output to syslog when starting Evolution

This started the same day I did the upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04.5LTS to 18.04.1LTS. Package/system information below:

lsb_release -crid
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic

apt-cache policy gdm3
gdm3:
  Installed: 3.28.2-0ubuntu1.4
  Candidate: 3.28.2-0ubuntu1.4

apt-cache policy evolution
evolution:
  Installed: 3.28.1-2
  Candidate: 3.28.1-2

apt-cache policy xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg:
  Installed: 1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1
  Candidate: 1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1

I've attached the output from syslog. This will also periodically be output to syslog for seemingly no apparent reason.
