Re: [Evolution] Mandrake 7.2, Gnome & Evolution

[Joseph "B." Welsh <JWelsh ConsecoDirect com>]

I actually tried the Redhat 6.2 snapshots and got it to work rather
nicely.  the only 2 problems that I found are the snapshots are from Jan
30th and in my version at least, none of my mail filters work.  I'm
using an IMAP Mandrake 7.2 server to hold my mail and I connect to it
with my laptop. I have had any lost mail yet! :-)

This weekend I am going to download the source snapshots for redhat 7
and rebuild the rpms for my machine to see how that works. 

I can't use the current prebuilt rpms form the Redhat 7 directory
because they want GLIBC 2.2 and Mandrake 7.2 is GLIB 2.1.

I think rebuilding the rpms might be easier than trying to upgrade to
GLIBC 2.2

I guess I'll know soon enough!
