Re: [Evolution-hackers] EDS integration is broken in Gnome-panel's (3.8.x) clock-applet

Hi, it doesn't seem they are using GNOME's git [1] for their changes, at least based on the names you mentioned. Is it correct or I'm wrong? I can give a flash shot on their calendar code, but I need to look at the right code, not at an old. Bye, Milan

AFAIK, Alberts is trying to modernize the code but not all changes can be merged with git-master (at least not now) hence he is maintaining separate repo/branch. (I will let Alberts reply here). Gnome-panel-3.8 is the latest version available to us.For latest code changes you can look at git-master[1].

On Ubuntu the source is available here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/gnome-panel/1:3.8.0-1ubuntu12

P.S.: There had been done many changes during the year, aka between 3.6 and 3.10, thus if they did not update their code, then they are lost.

That is exactly what I fear.

There had been done also soname version bumps, thus if you want to run gnome-panel with evolution-data-server 3.10.x, then you should build gnome-panel against that version first.

What do you mean by that? On Ubuntu, panel was always built against respective EDS available. Here is the complete scenario:
