Explaining how to compile and if wanted how to build a package for an Ubuntu derivative distro isn't the issue, if there should be no dependency inconsistencies. The issue is that there most likely will be inconsistencies and most likely they cause a dependency hell. On the right site of the Debian Tracker links there are the Ubuntu related sources: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/evolution-data-server https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/evolution The sources include patches, configure options, build dependencies, all the needed info to build split packages for Ubuntu flavours and most likely for the Ubuntu derivative the OP is using too. Ubuntu even provides already Evolution 3.18.3 by the official repositories of the development branch. http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/evolution Instead of using your hints, the OP should use the Debian/Ubuntu sources and package build tools, assumed building Evolution should be an option for the OP. I doubt that it's possible to build latest version of Evolution by using shared libraries from the official repositories of the Ubuntu release the OP's distro is based upon. It's not impossible to build Evolution, but it most likely requires much more effort, than just providing a few config options. Maybe the PPA the OP wants to use, does provide evolution, perhaps without the need to use shared libraries or by updating shared libraries too. To cut a long story short, if you like to provide hints, take care about the distro the OP is using. Actually I don't know the OP's distro, but I at least have some knowledge about Ubuntu flavours. Other than e.g. Arch and maybe the RPM based distro you are using, Ubuntu is a release model distro with likely outdated dependencies, IOW it's most likely not that easy to build latest Evolution for a distro based on a release of Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
