If anybody has any easier way of building the source, let me know.  tried
the i586.rpm build but recieve an error with SMTP-Auth using Plain on
smtp.starband.net  (so probabely have to configure with nss ssl as stated
in README).

Error while Sending ...:
SMTP server smtp.starband.net  does not support requested authentication
type PLAIN

I've used PLAIN with telnet and is possible with netscape & mozilla.

Following is the fun i had trying to install on Mandrake 8.0:

So far, i downloaded the snapshots for mandrake:
ftp://red-carpet.ximian.com/evolution/mandrake-70-i586/evolution-0.10-ximian.1.i586.rpm

error: failed dependencies:
        libgal6 >= 0.7 is needed by evolution-0.10-ximian.1
        libgal.so.6 is needed by evolution-0.10-ximian.1
        libgnomeprint.so.11 is needed by evolution-0.10-ximian.1
        libgtkhtml.so.9 is needed by evolution-0.10-ximian.1

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

I then upgraded them from the Cooker source (Mandrake-dev tree)
libgal6-0.7-1mdk.i586.rpm
libgal6-devel-0.7-1mdk.i586.rpm

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

Created a link to the old libgnomeprint lib:
ln -s /usr/lib/libgnomeprint.so.15.1.7 /usr/lib/libgnomeprint.so.11

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

Had to install libgtkhtml9 from Ximiam rpms becuase i could not build
libgtkhtml becuase it kept complaining that it couldn't find the capplet
lib:

*libgtkhtml7 only on mdk 8.0.  Needs libgtkhtml9. Used Ximam .src.rpm
        KEEP GETTING cannot find capplet lib with configure!
        Do have control-center-1.4.0.1-2mdk
        /usr/lib/libcapplet.so.0.0.0
in gtkhtml9*/configure.in
dnl ******************************
dnl capplet library check
dnl ******************************

AC_MSG_CHECKING(for capplet libraries)
if gnome-config --libs capplet > /dev/null 2>&1; then
    AC_MSG_RESULT(found)
else
    AC_MSG_ERROR(Did not find capplet library installed, you need to
install control center)
fi

***why doesn't it see the capplet libs ???

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

For SMTP-AUTH needed:
libnspr4-4.1-ximian.3.src.rpm

Doing rpm --rebuild libnspr4-4.1-ximian.3.src.rpm results in an error in
the %build:

creating pr/tests/Makefile
creating pr/tests/dll/Makefile
creating pr/src/pthreads/Makefile
+ '[' / '!=' /var/tmp/libnspr4-4.1-root ']'
+ rm -rf /var/tmp/libnspr4-4.1-root
+ make -C objdir NSDISTMODE=copy DIST=/var/tmp/libnspr4-4.1-root//usr
make: *** objdir: No such file or directory.  Stop.
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.35528 (%build)


Could not find rpm's for libnss. Source only available on the mozilla
tree?
