Re: [Evolution] Mandrake 7.2, Gnome & Evolution

I've had it running on 7.1 and 7.2 since the first rpm's...  You have to
make sure to do everything in the helix-update for the regular helix-gnome,
and then do the evolution..  If you get a failure installing, check in
/var/cache/helix-install/ for the RPM's and see what they require...  It's
been a no-brainer on my installation, so far.  Getting all the snapshots to
work is another story...
