Thanks Greg. This is how I ended up doing it: apt-get install apt-src mkdir foo cd foo apt-src install ximian-connector ls cd ximian-connector-1.4.7.2/ dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc (got an error with regards to perl xml somthing) apt-get install intltool dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc dpkg -i evolution-exchange_1.4.7.2-1_i386.deb VERY NICE! Thanks to Novell for open sourcing the connector! And thanks to all the debian-users for helping me get this in. Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
