 Did you upgrade your distro? 
 Or did you use a fresh install and Backup/Restore in Evolution?

I upgraded Evolution using the Aptitude package manager.

  1. The settings for sorting of messages were not kept. I had it on
  »Date« before and after starting Evolution 3.4 nothing was selected,
  which was quite confusing since messages are not displayed where they
  are supposed too.
  
  2. In Evolution 3.2 if there was a warning, a orange area was put into
  the window, with a button to discard, which I could select with a
  keyboard shortcut (in German Alt + v) and hit space bar to also discard
  it.
  
  In Evolution 3.4 the button is gone and I have to use the mouse to click
  on the cross.
 
 Confirming.
 
  3. My spelling settings were also not migrated. I had it set to check
  for German and English. In Evolution 3.4 it is only German again.
 
 /data/evolution.convert in git lists composer-spell-languages.
 Might be a bug in the migration from gconf to GSettings. 
 Would be interesting to know if conversion of other arrays worked.

How can I check that?


Thanks,

Paul

[Evolution] Again no smooth upgrade from Evolution 3.2 to 3.4

2012-08-21 Thread Paul Menzel
Dear Evolution folks,


unfortunately after upgrading from Evolution 3.2 to 3.4 there were again
changes and regressions. Is there no way to do some quality assurance?
It is disappointing that there are issues after *every* upgrade. It is
really a bad user experience and quite nerve taking.

Here are my issues. I have *not* looked yet, if there are any open
tickets at GNOME’s Bugzilla already.

1. The settings for sorting of messages were not kept. I had it on
»Date« before and after starting Evolution 3.4 nothing was selected,
which was quite confusing since messages are not displayed where they
are supposed too.

2. In Evolution 3.2 if there was a warning, a orange area was put into
the window, with a button to discard, which I could select with a
keyboard shortcut (in German Alt + v) and hit space bar to also discard
it.

In Evolution 3.4 the button is gone and I have to use the mouse to click
on the cross.

3. My spelling settings were also not migrated. I had it set to check
for German and English. In Evolution 3.4 it is only German again.

4. The selection issue I sent a separate message for to the list.

I am sorry if these are Debian packaging issues, but I do think these
are upstream issues.


Thanks,

Paul

Oh, sure there is: Get a Service Level Agreement with the business
edition of your favorite distribution.

 It is disappointing that there are issues after *every* upgrade. It is

Anybody could help by testing unstable versions / migrations and report
bugs in bugzilla.gnome.org before the major (stable) version is
released.

 Here are my issues. I have *not* looked yet, if there are any open
 tickets at GNOME’s Bugzilla already.

The fact that you have to put it on 'Date' is a bug in the first place.
Evolution should show the messages in the order that they appear in the
mailbox (which is by the *received* time, not the date in the Date:
header). You don't want messages with dates in the future to sit at the
bottom for ages, and you don't want messages which arrive with a date in
the *past* (perhaps it got delayed in transit) to appear further back in
the mailbox than other messages which you've already dealt with.
