In case you're on a Debian-based distribution and not pulling from svn, I would recommend using pre-built packages, or even building the packages yourself. 2.10.2 is in the archive, and I will do 2.11.2 this weekend. For my own development setup I use the 2.10.x packages plus custom build from svn for the module I'm hacking on. e-d-s for example, I install to /opt/evolution-data-server. Then I can start development e-d-s with 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/evolution-data-server/lib /opt/evolution-data-server/libexec/evolution-data-server-1.12' and can also start the stable e-d-s with '/usr/lib/evolution/evolution-data-server-1.10' Cheers, Øystein _______________________________________________ Evolution-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
