Re: [Evolution] Automatic Update for Evolution

[Jo-Erlend Schinstad <joerlend schinstad gmail com>]

Ubuntu will automatically provide updates for Evolution. If, like
Patrick suggested, you mean upgrade from 2.26.1 to 2.28, then the
answer is no. The reason for that, is that packages in an Ubuntu
system depend on one another. So if you upgraded Evolution, then you
might have to upgrade another application, etc. This might cause some
conflicts. You can do it manually though, but it does require some
effort and I wouldn't recommend it to a new Ubuntu user.

Upgrading Ubuntu, however, is easy. Once every six months, Ubuntu
releases a new version, including the newest version of Evolution.
Karmic Koala (Ubuntu 9.10) is exactly one month away, and includes
Evolution 2.28, Firefox 3.5 and the newest OpenOffice.org  :)
