Nope, this issue was not covered here, as there isn't much discussion
about 1.5.x versions. Please file bugs regarding 1.5.x versions in
http://bugzilla.ximian.com.

Please note: Evolution 1.5.x are *development* versions, currently under
heavy development. They are expected to still have bugs. Do not use
1.5.x versions, unless you do know what you are doing or wanna live on
the dangerous side.


FYI: Both issues are fixed in CVS already, AFAIK. :)


As neither mail nor contacts where imported, did you use this versions
at all for real work? Have you added / changed any data?

If not, just go ahead using 1.4.5, as they are parallel installable. You
will have to re-import your 1.4 data later again.


(I will provide a script to the list to enable importing again.)

Dunno if this is already known. Feel free to file it in bugzilla.

If you actually have retrieved mails from your POP3 account and want to
import them into stable Evo 1.4.5, you should be able to drag-n-drop the
mbox files to 1.4.x. (Please note, importing mails by drag-n-drop will
delete the file if successful. You might wanna use copies only.)
