I needed to run

killall gcr-prompter

and

evolution --force-shutdown

because

Evolution asked again and again for the password of one account, even
when I didn't send or retrieve mails, it wasn't add to the keyring.

Evolution kept the send and receive window after finishing all
processes.

Evolution never finished processes, this btw. happens after downgrading
to the previous version, now for the previous version too, so
downgrading to/keeping just

evolution 3.10.4-1
evolution-data-server 3.10.4-1
gnome-desktop 1:3.10.2-1

doesn't solve all issues.

An up to date Arch Linux [1] usually running Jwm, sometimes still
running Xfce4. Cinnamon and Mate are installed too, but I don't use
them.

I kept Midori GTK2 for a while, which conflicted with the GTK3 version,
but then removed it.
