Re: [Evolution] Solaris starting Evolution errors with Bonobo and wombat -- Working now

[KEVEN M MURPHY <murphyk gdls com>]

Got it working now.

The Fix:

1) Downloaded newest version
        (Didn't run still after installing)
2) cd /usr/share
3) ln -s /opt/gnome /usr/share/gnome     
4) ln -s /opt/gnome/share/oaf /usr/share/oaf
5) killev; oaf-slay
6) evolution-nognome


I think steps 3&4 were the key in getting it to work. If there any
developers out there you should make a note to see if this is the case
for the solaris distrubtions.

Thank you for your help Ettore.


One happy Evolution user,
