[Evolution-hackers] Gnome 1.4 and comparable Evolution pkg

["AG" <agreen bkaeg org>]

Hello all:

I recently went through a fairly detailed process of installing Gnucash on
my Slack 9.1 box.

The details are shown here -> http://rjmarq.org/gnucash.html  and
http://www.dropline.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=827

Essentially, it amounts to installing all of the Gnome 1.4 libs.

Although, I use the KDE 3.1.4 desktop, there are 3 Gnome programs that I
plan to use regularly - Gnucash 1.8.8, Evolution, and Gnomemeeting.

I have found most of the Gnome programs to be dependency nightmares.
Which Evolution pkg would be more appropriate with my current Gnome libs?

I don't wish to break my Gnucash installation.

Should I go back to Evolution 1.4.x ?

It appears that I've backed out all of the Gnome 2.0 libs, so that
Gnucash would work correctly on Slack 9.1 distro, which doesn't have
native support for Gnome 1.4 based apps.

I've already used various slackpages to install evolution 1.5.
Running 'evolution-1.5' from the command line yields the following error:

"evolution-1.5: error while loading shared libraries: libplds4.so:"

I'm sure I could fix it by installing the req'd libs.

Below is the output from 'ldd -v /usr/bin/evolution-1.5'
