Description Ryan 2008-02-23 22:06:32 UTC
as the summary states, a connector to sync up calendar, contacts and e-mail.

I believe e-mail uses imap, contacts and calendar uses soap (with or without ssl).

Installed it , works, still testing for stability and such.

     Is this ebuild (or the most-recent zimbraevo 0.1.1) ready for ~amd64?  My workplace is migrating over to Zimbra Collaboration Suite, and I'd like to stick with my Gentoo/Evolution setup.

TIA!
Comment 3 Ryan 2008-07-29 20:00:43 UTC
I ran it on amd64 and it worked.  I have issues with it syncing the contacts and calendar. I think that was fixed in one of the later ZCS 5.0.x series, but I am stuck on 5.0.2 due to mysql bug and can't upgrade.

Since there was a bit of interest, I thought I would go ahead and post a small update.

There was a code clean up in June of 2008. No a simple rename of the ebuild is all that is necessary.

The quality of this plugin is shaky. All the pieces work (e-mail, calendar, contacts), but integration between them and connectivity is very buggy.

This is the integration of zimbra's build for the zimbra java client. It has off-line and on-line capabilities. The process is simple: tar -x, mv, and creation of /usr/local/bin/zdesktop. Please report any problem here.

mail-client/zimbra-desktop-7.1.4_p11273.ebuild: version bump, x86 ok, amd64 usable.

Added dependencies (maybe too much). Tested on sabayon x86 and amd64.

Use with GENTOO_MIRRORS="" PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage emerge -av zimbra-desktop

For amd64 users: this will only lauch the zdesktop backend, you will need a standard brower.

While many users have reported success of running Zimbra Desktop on 64-bit Vista and Linux, it is not officially supported. (Quote from http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Zimbra_Desktop_FAQ.)
See http://www.zimbra.com/forums/general-questions/31114-zimbra-desktop-64-btis-any-issues.html

On x86, compatibility with files of version 1.0.2 was not a problem.

Backend works on linux Sabayon amd64.

All works well on x86.

I got the ajax interface of zdesktop working on amd64. 

INSTALLATION: Create an empty $HOME/zdesktop file. For the installation you temporarily need an x86 computer, with $HOME having the same value.
from that x86 computer with zdesktop installed, type: sshfs amd64computer:$HOME/zdesktop $HOME/zdesktop ; /opt/zimbra-desktop/app/linux/user-install.pl
At end, do not request to launch zdesktop: type ^C.
Then, finish the installation with fusermount -u $HOME/zdesktop

DAYLY USE: On the amd64 computer, type: /opt/zimbra-desktop/app/linux/prism/zdclient -webapp $HOME/zdesktop/zdesktop.webapp -override $HOME/zdesktop/zdesktop.webapp/override.ini -profile $HOME/zdesktop/profile

Enjoy ! The x86 computer is only needed for the installation of the $HOME/zdesktop directory.

A simple diff between $HOME/zdesktop/profile/* did not show anything meaninful.
