Assumed you should use a distro that does use RPM or DEB packages, then you could run checkinstall instead of make install , this often can build a package, even if you shouldn't know how to build packages yourself. FWIW, checkinstall doesn't help you regarding to dependencies, you still need to check out this on your own. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
