Evolution 1.3.x is the port to Gnome 2 and thus uses the Gnome 2 ability
with anti-aliased fonts. :-)

# ls -l `which evolution-1.4`
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           22 May  9 02:48 /usr/bin/evolution-1.4 -> /usr/bin/evolution-1.3*

1.4 is just a symlink on my machine (Mandrake 9.1, Evolution 1.3.3) and
works as expected. Seems like a packaging issue with the SuSE 8.2 RPMs.

Yep, 1.3.x are the current developer versions and beta stage. 1.4 will
be the next stable release.
