Hi , I want the package. But the instruction on your page is really not easy to follow. I am redhat user and not familar with apt. Can you just give me a direct link? Thanks York Du
The reason I have an Apt repository is to resolve dependencies automatically - documentation is ample at http://freshrpms.net . This is Apt for RPM, and a lot of Red Hat users are using it to get multimedia goodies (working DVD player, MP3 plugin for XMMS, etc.) for their stock Red Hat distribution (hint, hint.. ) Basically if you install the Apt RPM from the link to FreshRPMS provided, modified its source list (/etc/apt/sources.list) and add my repository to the list as instructed on the webpage, you can then just do: apt-get update apt-get install evolution or better still, apt-get update apt-get upgrade and have the shiny Evo 1.1.2 :) But failing that, there is the 'browse files' section, just dig through my site to apt/redhat/8.0/en/i386/RPMS.ms and download evolution, pilot-link, gnome-pilot, oaf, soap, ... etc. until Evolution stops complaining and install properly. You might want to install the upgraded jpilot as well if you use it, since the old one will break due to the pilot-link recompile. In other word, messy. Use the force; use Apt :) I only fall back to using Red Hat's up2date now when FreshRPMS does not have the required Red Hat update.
