Milan reminded me about this today so I went ahead with it. It turns out just the D-Bus service names need to be versioned, not the interface names. But the same rules for incrementing the version apply. The new names are (with both versions at '0'): Bus Name: org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.AddressBook0 Object Path: org/gnome/evolution/dataserver/AddressBookFactory Interface: org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.AddressbookFactory Bus Name: org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Calendar0 Object Path: org/gnome/evolution/dataserver/CalendarFactory Interface: org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.CalendarFactory More details in the commit message: http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/commit/?id=89b130c3d75cd0fa023af4064b0d0e3ce2147519 Matthew Barnes _______________________________________________ evolution-hackers mailing list evolution-hackers@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
