It would be too nice to have an evolution emerge from the CVS, that would be
good to test the new Evolution with GTK+ 2.x support.

Reproducible: Always

I don't feel much for an evolution cvs ebuild thinking of the problems we have with stable evo releases.

But if you can provide a correct ebuild i would have a good look at it, i would prefer an official (beta)release ebuild (there is none that i am aware of).

Here's a cvs ebuild for evolution from the forums
here-->http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=31519 . I'm not the author,
just thought og putting it in bugzilla.

Foser -

This ebuild does produce quite unstable software...  Tho it would be convienent to have in portage, I don't think it really belongs there...  Just my .02 worth.

well i know a lot of ppl would like to have it, but i'm not really ready to support it just yet (which is what we have to do when it goes in). So i prefer to give it some more time to mature (at least till after the next gentoo release).
Comment 6 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-03-09 07:33:51 UTC
i agree. evolution-cvs also depends on too many other cvs components like gal-cvs, gtkhtml-cvs and libsoup-cvs. i would much rather have a snapshot ready.

i've tried this and i needed a hack just to get it to start, let alone make it a comparable mail client to evo-1.2.
