Hello Right now I see lots of people struggling to get the MAPI plugin to work. Even more problem trying to get it to work with the current version of Evolution, 2.22. First of all, isn't it strange that developers use 2.12 and not the latest version (2.22)? 2.12.0 is so old, released 2007-09-17.
We've moved the development code base to 2.22 a few days back. It should be able to build evolution-mapi-provider tarball against any of the recent versions of evolution.
To help with this problem, isn't it possible for the developers to build packages and have them uploaded to ppa.launchpad.net[1]?
Packages are available in openSUSE build service [0]. I've been sucessfull in building them for openSUSE 10.3 & Fedora 8 ( Evolution 2.12 ) . I would be very happy if somebody is willing to take up resposibility for building it for Ubuntu / Debian in openSUSE Build service (I'm familiar with Build Service) or anyother repositories. :)
ïI use a pre-release version of AWN[2] for example and there I have a ppa repository which I download the latest releases from. Works great!
Nice! Jelmer [1] has debian builds for Samaba4 and libmapi in his apt repository [2]. I'm sure he would be happy to glad to get the builds for the evolution-mapi-provider plugin. He hangs out in #evo-mapi @ irc.gimp.org and #openchange in irc.freenode.net.
