Re: Evolution still isn't working

[Dave Collett <jg webone com au>]

Can anyone speculate if this solution (downgrading orbit/bonobo) will
have any negative side-effects? Should other packages be recompiled
against the downgraded versions?

I just ran evolution from 0.25.1 and then afterward, ran evolution from
0.26.2, it runs, but crashes (with the same error) when I switch to
"Summary".

As long as I stay away from "Summary" I might be ok...
