Now I have managed to get through at least all of the configure steps to build evolution-mapi. I still have a compile problem there but that's another issue.
I have written down the steps I did to build on Ubuntu. Maybe some of this is "Wiki-material". == Intrepid == These packages needs to be installed (maybe others, these are the ones that I needed to install in addition to the ones I already had on my system). If something is missing, you usually get a stop error telling you which package. You normally need <package name>-dev. Sometimes you have to be a bit creative matching the error message to a Ubuntu package. build-essential python-dev libtalloc-dev flex autoconf tdb-dev bison libpopt-dev libtool intltool gtk-doc-tools libgconf2-dev libsqlite3-dev libgnomeui-dev libenchant-dev These were also suggested on http://www.go-evolution.org/Compiling_Evolution_from_SVN#On_Ubuntu for Gutsy so I installed them libxt-dev texinfo libgdbm-dev texi2html libnss3-dev libnspr4-dev Do this in the console you are compiling from export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/samba/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/opt/gnome2/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/evolution/trunk evolution svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/evolution-data-server/trunk evolution-data-server svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtkhtml/trunk gtkhtml svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/libsoup/trunk libsoup For libsoup & gtkhtml I installed with these parameters ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/opt/gnome2 make make install evolution-data-server, e-d-s ./autogen --without-weather --enable-gnome-keyring=yes --prefix= $HOME/opt/gnome2 evolution ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/opt/gnome2 --enable-nntp=yes --enable-test-component=yes --enable-nss=yes --enable-smime=yes --enable-plugins=all --without-weather evolution-mapi Follow workflow on Follow workflow on http://www.go-evolution.org/MAPIProvider but first install gnome-common svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gnome-common/trunk gnome-common cd gnome-common ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/opt/gnome2 make && make install cd .. export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/opt/gnome2/bin/ For evolution-mapi I changed autogen prefix ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/opt/gnome2 make make install Script to start Evolution #!/bin/sh export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/samba/lib/pkgconfig: $HOME/opt/gnome2/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/opt/gnome2/bin:/usr/local/samba/bin $HOME/opt/gnome2/bin/evolution _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
