Re: [Evolution] Crash on startup with OAFD error

[Joe <joe neal home com>]

Well, I have done all of the suggestions I've read so far, but I still get the OAF error, as well as a 
camel-ERROR.  I have set the OAF_INFO_PATH to /usr/share/oaf, copied over all the files, and I even deleted 
the /tmp/orbit-xxxx files.  No luck!  Any help would be appreciated.

camel-ERROR **: Could not open camel provider directory: No such file or directory
aborting...

evolution-shell-WARNING **: Could not activate component 
OAFIID:evolution-shell-component:evolution-mail:d3cb3ed6-a654-4337-8aa0-f443751d6d1b. (Maybe you need to set 
OAF_INFO_PATH?)
