It is a different topic. I'm talking about dependency chains. The more features, the more likely more dedicated dependencies are required. IOW it's easy to compile a release of Claws against the latest and greatest, as well as against aged dependencies. Compiling a dedicated version of Evolution comes with less headroom regarding the required dependencies. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
