There are a couple of methods to move data which will work. You can log in using only a command-line shell on either the console or via SSH. This will not start up the Gnome services and you can copy the data freely. You can also do it from a GUI if you guarantee that Evolution is shut down. There used to be a killev command... OK, I just tried this and I have to say WTF? How does anyone do Evolution development anymore? I killed the processes and they don't stay dead. What if I wanted to run a newly compiled version with a debugger or command line flags or environment variables? I have to hack DBUS files now? That's insane. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
