[Evolution] Trying to compile Evolution, no joy yet..

[gkm-elist gawd mb ca]

I've been trying for the last 24 hour (pretty much straight) to get Evolution 
to compile for me.  And no success yet.

First, the system.  It's a base Suse Linux install, on an Sparc Ultra-2.
It had alot of gnome installed already, but quite a few versions too low for 
Evolution to install.

So, I went through the ./configure and as it complained about each thing not 
there, or too low, I upgraded that on the system. (and upgraded those things 
that pieces complained about, and so on and so on :)
I eventually got to the point where Evo .8 configured ok, but failed in the 
executive summary part of things.  This is when I joined the mailing list, and 
found the fix for it by replacing a couple of files in executive summary.
while I was at it, I grabbed a complete CVS tree of evolution. (being the 
simple way to get what I needed)
I tried a configure of that, and found all I needed was a new GAL, so I 
grabbed that and installed it. But, no joy compiling the CVS tree either.

Soooo, what I have is two trees, neither of which will compile. (and a Gnome 
install so Mucked up I don't think any of the Gnome Apps from Suse have a 
chance of running.  :)

Here's what comes out of the CVS tree compile....

----------------------------

And here's what comes out of the .8 compile (with the older but valid GAL, it 
really doesn't like the new one)
This is with replacing just esummary.c and .h, I also tried replacing the 
entire esummary directory as was suggested, but that didn't work either.

--------------------------------------

The question is, what should I do?  Which version should I try to get running 
and how do I make my gnome setup at least something like one of these would 
like?  (grabbing Ximian's Gnome would be nice, but they don't seem to make for 
Sparc Linux.  :)

Here's what's installed in the system now. (what was grabbed anyway)

Hope this makes some sense..

P.S. I really do want to try Evolution, it's just resisting me. :)
