On the assumption that Dapper contains most of Sid:
$ grep-dctrl -sPackage -F Build-Depends libecal -or libebook gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper*Sources
Package: contact-lookup-applet
Package: control-center
Package: deskbar-applet
Package: evolution-data-server
Package: evolution-exchange
Package: evolution-webcal
Package: gaim
Package: nautilus-sendto
Package: contacts
Package: glabels
Package: gnome-launch-box
Package: gnome-phone-manager
Package: hdate-applet
Package: revolution
No libraries, so the .la files can be stripped from e-d-s.
