Yes. The 4 last packages are provided by pilot-link so, of course, they compile with pilot-link 0.12.1. > Also, I don't see libpisock++ in experimental; > is it no longer being provided?

The C++ API (libpisock++) is no more provided by pilot-link 0.12.x. I don't know why but the libpisock++ directory has been removed from the source code. This package is not used by Debian so it should not be a problem. > > - fails to build (with the FTBFS bug number, with priority normal): > > evolution #341172 > > > Maybe libmultisync-plugin-palm is now replaced by opensync-plugin-palm > > (correctly rebuilt using the new API) as indicated in #338328.

I discovered that sid has evolution 2.6.3 and the last upstream stable version of evolution is 2.8.0 (see http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/download.shtml). I also found a patch to add support of pilot-link 0.12.x in evolution 2.8.0 in http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00557.html. Fortunately this patch also applies cleanly on evolution-2.6.3 and I was able to rebuild the Debian evolution package. I sent the needed patch to #341172 for inclusion. > Otherwise, I don't have any objections to this transition.
