Now I stumble also on the following error message. home/elfring/Projekte/Bau/Evolution/3.36.5/Probe/bin/evolution: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37: undefined symbol: wpe_fdo_initialize_shm > More importantly, you did not tell us *how* you build the Evolution. > You use CMake, of course, but that's far from the answer for the *how*. I wonder about such an information.
