Hi Bart, you've got a choice. For me it's much harder. I dislike KDE, so while switching to KDE, to get rid of all the buggy GNOME/GTK bugs, I not only will lose Evolution, my favourite MUA, I'll also will lose a clear desktop environment. KDE is unclear with tons of idiotic features, but I'm not willing to waste my time with all the GTK/GNOME bugs. I'm already using Xfce, sure, without gvfs, because I don't want to damage my hard drives and sure, all the times there are idiotic issues, I run chown/chmod and tons of other commands, just to fix, what's buggy with GTK/GNOME software. That's a no-go. I've got a perceptual disorder, so I really, really prefer to use the clear Xfce and Evolution over the unclear KDE with what ever other MUA, but IMHO, continuing to struggle with the GTK/GNOME insanity isn't worse the effort. I heard LXDE will switch to Qt. Drop what ever depends to GTK/GNOME crap that you can. I need to use some pro-audio applications based on GTK, but I already started to switch to KMail (not nearly as good as Evolution, but without all that bugs and that's more important) and KDE. I really have a very hard time with KDE now, and I take a rest using my old Xfce with Evolution at thsi moment. However, how long do you think should we wait, until GTK/GNOME stuff will work flawlessly, as it did in the good old times? IMO we should swallow the bitter pill :(. 2 Cents, Ralf PS: I'm using Linux only for more than 10 years, so I guess I'm able to gauge the situation. I don't see anything good within the close future, when continuing GTK/GNOME based environments and applications. Hopefully YMMV! _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
