Trying to build 1.5 on SuSE 9.0 per recomendations. I have downloaded 1.5.7 and solved seveal dependancies left out of SuSE's "typical" install. I am now left in the quagmire of dependacy hell.

*********
libgal-2.2.so.0

My fully updated sytem has:
wizej:/home/wisej/packages/evolution-1.5.7 # rpm -qa |grep libsoup-devel
libsoup-devel-1.99.23-55
wizej:/home/wisej/packages/evolution-1.5.7 # rpm -qa |grep libgal

Per the article their is an "unstable tree" of evolution 1.5x for these older packages but all the google hits I found were 404.
I checked the usual suspects.. rpmfind freshrpms no posts. (outside mandrak cooooker :>(
Here is the actual error I am getting:
*************
./configure
hecking for SunOS broken spool format... no
checking for libgtkhtml-3.1... Package libgtkhtml-3.1 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgtkhtml-3.1.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libgtkhtml-3.1' found
configure: error: Library requirements (libgtkhtml-3.1) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
