[Evolution-hackers] Need assistance installing latest evolution 3.1.5 on Fedora 15

2011-08-17 Thread Thomas Mittelstaedt
Just installed a Fedora 15 system on a free partition and thought about
testing the latest evolution a bit. The one installed is 3.0.2.
Found out that there is a brand-new package for the 3.1.5 version
available at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/builds/show/F-devel-i386/evolution/0/3.1.5/1.fc17/i686?_csrf_token=92652e49c54c39c10ffc2d7bb15abbd6031561e2.

Unfortunately, it has quite a substantial dependency list. Do I need to
upgrade to a F16 release? 
Since I am not so familiar with the fedora rpm/yum package management, I
would welcome somebody on this list to point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance,

Hmm. There is a preupgrade (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PreUpgrade) to
upgrade to the latest release, which is F16, right?

Hi,
if you want to install packages built against other packages from
certain distribution, then yes, you should have them built/installed
too, which usually means to upgrade your system to that particular
version.

The other option is to build locally on the machine, either from sources
or from source rpms, which requires to install devel packages, and such.
That all is quite out of scope of this list, maybe some fedora-specific
list exists, I'm not sure.
Bye,
Milan
