-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-2603 2011-03-04 09:41:02 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : syncevolution Product : Fedora 15 Version : 1.1.1 Release : 6.fc15 URL : http://syncevolution.org/ Summary : SyncML client for evolution Description : syncevolution is designed to provide a SyncML client that can connect to and sync with various SyncML-based servers -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update should fix the problem of syncevolution crashing on startup. This problem is down to an issue with libgdbus: syncevolution has its own private copy of this which varies considerably from the upstream version. The previous package built and installed a shared version of this variant library to (libdir)/syncevolution, but this path is not added to the linker configuration, so syncevolution cannot dynamically link against that copy. Instead syncevolution will either try to run against the system libgdbus, which is different from its private copy (and consequently crash immediately), or not be able to find any libgdbus (if the system copy is not installed) and also crash immediately. This build is statically linked against the variant libgdbus as a quick fix. A longer term solution which upstream has agreed with in principle is to rename syncevolution's variant of libgdbus and install it systemwide, as it is now effectively a different library. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #640750 - Syncevolution cannot open shared object file https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=640750 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
