1.4 uses the directory "$HOME/evolution"; 1.5 uses its own directory ($HOME/.evolution). therefore if you change mail and contacts and appointments in 1.5 this will not affect 1.4-data, but evo-settings are stored in gconf so if you change them in 1.4 it will also affect 1.5 and the other way round... > If there is a list of manual steps that need to be followed can someone > point me in the right direction? > Does evo 1.5 silently import everything from 1.4, or do I need to run > some special import tool? i myself first made a backup of my 1.4-data, then "evolution --force-shutdown" and then i installed evo1.5. when first starting evo-1.5 i forced migration from 1.4: "evolution-1.5 --force-migrate". > Is there a recommended way of installing Evo 1.5? should I just grab it > via a snapshot from red-carpet, or should I just bite the bullet and > build it from source? use what you prefer... hope that helped a little bit, andre
