Heh. Not a wild guess at all, Milan ;-)

Indeed, just rebuilding evolution/plugins/pst-import will do the trick.

But this would not rebuild the UBuntu package (either
evolution-plugins, or evolution-plugins-experimental, I do not remember
which), and I wanted to give the *easiest* way to get it done. Of
course, this is not the *fastest* way...

And I was not sure how much knowledge the reporter has on building from
source, anyway.

Cheers,
