Re: [Fink-users] Re: Evolution components missing?

[P.A.A.]

Alas, I havn't resolved it yet. I have tried all sorts of combinations of rebuilding evolution and the apps it depends on, but the same thing keeps happening. I do not know if one can convert *.la,*.a files to *.so, or if that is even what needs to be done. Evolution is maintained by the Fink core dev team. I do have everything installed successfully for Gnome using Fink except evolution, and we even just manually ported Imendio's Planner to Darwin (now working on a Fink package of Planner). I've searched numerous help lists and havn't yet found info on what to do about *.la,*.a,*.so issue. We'll keep working :), If you find anything do share :).

Keep the faith :)

<x-tad-bigger>Hi,

I fink installed evolution 1.4 (osx 10.3.5, powerbook g4, xcode 1.5)
and when starting I get a series of missing component messages like
/sw/lib/evolution/1.4/components/libevolution-addressbook.so missing.
I checked the archives and couldn't find any reference. In the
directory the components are listed as .a and .la files rather than .so
files like libevolution-addressbook.a . Is there a conversion process
for the .a,.la files or what to do?

Thanks,
Patrick

Did you ever resolve this issue? I am having the same exact problem, and I can not figure it out. When I start Evolution 1.4.6-10 I get a bunch of errors about missing components, and more specifically the *.so files. When I check the components dir listed above, I notice the *.la and *.a files, but no *.so files.

fink --version
Package manager version: 0.22.2
Distribution version: 0.7.1.rsync

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Brian
