For Evo: http://www.go-evolution.org/FAQ#How_can_I_transfer_all_my_Evolution_data_from_an_old_home_directory_to_a_new_home_directory.3F For Fedora, ask on <[email protected]> (see https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list) for subscription info. However though recent versions of Fedora can be upgraded without much trouble, a direct upgrade from FC5 to F10 is likely to be risky. You could try doing it via FC5->Fc6->...->F9->F10 but I wouldn't bet on it being trouble-free either. You're much more likely to get good results by reinstalling after backing up your user and configuration data. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
