So far this has always been an issue for me. I am using Oracle Linux, which is a fork of RHEL. The evolution version shipped with my distribution had some serious gtk-related issues, so I tried to backport the latest-possible evolution version. I ended up with evolution 3.20, which is still fairly old. Here's some examples of related package versions on my box: gnome-shell-3.14.4-53.el7.x86_64 webkitgtk3-devel-2.4.9-6.el7.x86_64 gtk3-devel-3.14.13-20.el7_3.1.x86_64 I would not mind backporting some referenced libraries, build tools etc., but dependencies of the newer evolution version went deep into gnome, so that I would have had to use entirely my own gnome installation which I did not want (since this usually creates lots of issues and conflicts with other packages). I usually use the .src.rpm files for Fedora that I get on rpmfind.net as a basis, and I may have to adapt this and that. Maybe the dependencies listed there are not what is actually really needed? I would really like to have an up-to-date evolution version, but so far this has been pretty much out of reach for me. Cheers, Martin -- Dr. Martin Dietze 1.
