[Evolution] Composer problems with 0.10



A month or so ago I posted that I could not use the message composer w/
Evo 0.10 using the nightly snapshots.  I tried re-installing each
component over the course of a week or so before finally giving up.  I
downloaded the evolution-0.10-ximian.1.i386.rpm using redcarpet today
and unfortunately the problem still exists.  

The problem is:  I click on "Compose" (or reply, or forward), the
composition window appears and I can enter text into the message body
and the message subject fields.  However, I cannot enter anything into
the "to" or "cc" fields which renders the composer completely useless.
These 2 fields appear as a solid grey region with no input areas.

I've scanned the message archives and still cannot find a solution.
I've tried the following:
oaf-slay
kill-ev
rm /tmp/orbit-phil
rm /usr/share/oaf/GNOME_Gtkhtml*oafinfo

Re-started evolution and composer, same problem.

I've even tried changing the fonts (as someone had suggested) by
clicking on the composer window's Edit -> Properties option and then
changing the values of the "On Screen - Fixed width" font.  I tried
several, arial, helvetica, courier, but no luck.

So once again, I've reverted back to the 0.9 release because I don't
experience any composer related problems.  I'm not sure what to do
anymore in order to get 0.10 to work.

For the record, I'm running Redhat 7.0 with Gnome 1.4 (just upgraded to
1.4, but the problem existed with the last release as well).  Other rpms
which may be of interest:

gtkhtml-0.9.3-100_helix_200104260701
oaf-0.6.6-100_helix_200104090806
gnome-vfs-1.0-ximian.2
libgnomeprint11-0.25-ximian.6
libgal6-0.7-ximian.2
gnome-vfs-devel-1.0-ximian.2
gnome-print-0.25-ximian.6
gnome-print-devel-0.25-ximian.6
gdk-pixbuf-0.10.1-ximian.3
gdk-pixbuf-devel-0.10.1-ximian.3
gal-0.7-ximian.2
bonobo-devel-1.0.0-ximian.1
bonobo-1.0.0-ximian.1
ORBit-0.5.7-ximian.3
GConf-1.0.0-ximian.4
control-center-1.4.0.1-ximian.5

I'd really like to use the latest and greate Evo but I'm stuck w/ 0.9
until I can get this problem resolved.

Thanks for any help,

Phil
