0.28.3: don't bother with evolution



Hi,

I was about to post how to make evolution-1.5 compile in 0.28.3.
However, it's not worth it as it's very buggy (crashes on filters all
the time, etc.).
However, building it from cvs with --prefix=<garnome> works very well. I
use evolution-data-server from garnome + cvs evo, and I'm happy.

Since I suspect that a missing evo prevents lots of people like me to
switch to Gnome 2.5.1, here come the cvs instructions:


mario sonic: /usr/local/src $ export CVSROOT=':pserver:
anonymous anoncvs gnome org:/cvs/gnome'
mario sonic: /usr/local/src $ cvs login
mario sonic: /usr/local/src $ mkdir evolution-1.5
mario sonic: /usr/local/src $ cvs -z3 checkout  -d evolution-1.5/
evolution
mario sonic: /usr/local/src $ cd evolution-1.5/
mario sonic: /usr/local/src/evolution-1.5 $ CC=gcc-3.2 ./autogen.sh --
prefix=<your garnome dir> --enable-pilot-conduits=yes  --with-nss-
includes=<your garnome dir>/misc/mozilla/work/main.d/mozilla/dist/
public/nss/ --with-nspr-includes=<your garnome dir>//misc/mozilla/work/
main.d/mozilla/dist/include/nspr  && make && make install

Shortly before it's ready, it complained about a missing \n in the it.po
file ("msgid and mstr not both ending in \n") which was fixed easily.
Don't know if the nss- and nspr-includes are needed, but they were for
garnome's evolution. If you may want to enable ssl, kerberos or similar,
see configure --help

Have fun
