I don't mean to sound impatient, but it's been a few weeks and Solaris seems to 
be the only OS not yet to have had an RPM of Evolution 1.0.3 posted?

I know 1.0.3 isn't a major update, but a lot of the underlying libraries *have* 
now been updated via red-carpet, and Evo has become quite unstable because of 
it.  For instance I've started getting popups when I first start it about 
__eprintf not being found by a "camel_local" .so (or somesuch) when trying to 
open my Sent mailbox, and then a few emails into using it the mailer crashes 
out, or the addressbook, just in normal use.

I'm not sure, but I'm pretty certain this would all go away if a version of Evo 
for Solaris turned up compiled against these latest libraries?

Similarly, the Ximian Solaris distribution is still at Mozilla 0.9.7, where as 
everyone else is at 0.9.9?  This is mostly a pain because of the Solaris/SPARC- 
specific performance optimisations that went into 0.9.8.  Your Mozilla builds 
are by far the most stable I've found (probably because of the mess of 
self-compiled libraries I have lying around here from the past 6 years or so) 
and so although I've messed with various builds of 0.9.9, I keep coming back to 
your 0.9.7 one for stability.

I really don't want to sound like I'm carping - I'm getting the red-carpet 
service for free and it's saving me a huge amount of time over when I compiled 
all this stuff myself from CVS.  I'm just wondering why these major projects are 
getting left behind on Solaris?

Many thanks,
