Shouldn't this be /opt/libsoup_CVS/??? > When I reconfigured, I got the same error!

If you have little time, I would guess jhbuild or similar would be the way to go. With jhbuild make sure you specify only evolution as the target (unless you want more of gnome 2.5.x), because otherwise it cna end up bringing in the world (e.g. mozilla). I recently gave up trying to do it myself and went with jhbuild, it took a long time to get it going (for some reason i had a problem nobody else seems to get), but before that, an approach that makes it a lot easier is to install everything in one /opt location, like /opt/gnome2, rather than having one per thing - the auto* macro's and pkgconfig stuff becomes a much more painful task to maintain if you use a separate dir for every package. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
