Hello Peter,
I've been running Evolution 1.4.5 on Solaris 9 for the last
3 weeks, including Calendar, Tasks and Contacts, and
synchronization with a Handspring Neo via a serial cradle.
Here is my experience:
First convince the installer that it should install Evo
on your machine.
> uname -sr
SunOS 5.9
Compile the attached C program:
> gcc -fPIC -G -c uname.c
> ld -G -o uname.so uname.o
> LD_PRELOAD=uname.so # or wherever you put it
> RELEASE=5.8
> export LD_PRELOAD RELEASE
At this point, uname should return 5.8
> uname -sr
SunOS 5.8
You can now use Ximian's installer,
> wget -q -O - http://go-solaris.ximian.com |sh
Then you want to make sure that the runtime linker knows
where to look for the new libraries, and extend your PATH,
so add the following to your .bashrc (or equivalent if
CShell user):
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/opt/gnome/lib
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/gnome/bin
(if you don't set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, the E-mail component
seem to work but not the Contacts).
I seem to remember that libiconv was not installed automatically,
so I pulled it from Ximian's site:
ftp://ftp.ximian.com/pub/ximian-evolution/solaris-8-sun4/libiconv-1.5-ximian.3.sparc.rpm
and installed it,
> rpm --rcfile /opt/gnome/lib/rpm/rpmrc libiconv-1.5-ximian.3.sparc.rpm
As a bonus, red-carpet is also available.
Other issues:
I've had the Contacts crashing on files that were transfered from
Linux, so I started with an empty contact folder and it works fine
now.
Synchronization with the Palm works fine, except that
libmal_conduit seem to be missing, therefore, I am using malsync
to synchronize AvantGo; ah, and libmemo does not seem to work
either ...
Otherwise, it seems pretty stable, and I just wished that Sun
would have released this with an update of Gnome; it's Christmas
day you know ...
Hope this helps,
All the best!
Marcel
