Sorry, dunno -- as I haven't used Red Carpet for a long time now.

Anyway, this list is intended for Evolution discussions. Red Carpet
related questions are probably better directed at one of this lists:

General discussion of Ximian software

Ximian Red Carpet users list

You can grab any needed packages from the Ximian FTP server directly and
install it using 'rpm' -- if Ximian provides packages for your distro.
If not (and it doesn't look like it to me), you are left to RH's
updates...
