Re: [Evolution] infinitive wait for network events
Not sure about LDAP but load images is not enabled. I do not recall ever seeing connection issues regarding LDAP. The mention of LDAP came from me - most of the connection issues I had were solved when I stopped Evo from looking up contacts in my remote LDAP address book to see if it should display images. The LDAP address book on its own was fine; the loading of images was fine if I didn't have the LDAP setup; but the two of them together gave lots of problems. Main reason I started this thread is to seek diagnostic help as I clearly stated in my question. I apologize if inline attachment caused problems. It didn't cause any problems, and was fine by me. There are just some people here you are grumpy about attachments [although they use an excellent mail client that handles them gracefully ;) ]. But it wasn't an attachment, it was in-line text; and Evo didn't handle it at all, let alone gracefully; it just displayed the uuencoded data.

[Evolution] Help files
Using Evolution 3.6.3 on openSUSE 12.3 with KDE desktop. The Help - About - Contents shows an error message : Could not display help for Evolution. The specified location is not supported. I don't understand the not supported part. Knowing where the help files are located might give me a start. I've looked in /usr/share/evolution/3.6/help/. The only entry there is quickref/ and see I files for different languages. There is no en folder. There is a folder named with an upper case, underlined C which contains an English quick reference card. I can't find anything else.

The gnome help system (yelp) looks for things in /usr/share/help The language you are looking for is the same as your locale settings and in locale terms, 'C' is the default if your locale doesn't exist. What it comes down to is that the 'C' locale is American English. So the Evolution help files should be in /usr/share/help/C/evolution and on F18, those files are provided by the evolution-help package.

Also check whether help files for Evolution are packaged separately on openSUSE. We do that on Fedora for the sake of the live CD; help files are in a separate 'evolution-help' package.

[Evolution] ActiveSync support updated for Evolution 3.8
I've rather belatedly pushed the updates to evolution-activesync to make it support Evo 3.6 and 3.8. I'd been running with some hackish local changes that I couldn't bring myself to commit, but I've finally cleaned it up and ditched a lot of the support for ancient Evolution versions. I *haven't* updated the eplugin; I'm not entirely sure how to. Normally I cheat and copy from the EWS back end, but there have been a *lot* of changes there and a lot of them aren't relevant because we don't (yet) handle calendar and addressbook in ActiveSync; those are handled through SyncEvolution instead. Matt, or anyone else with sufficient clue: if you have a chance to take a look and update the eplugin to work in 3.8 (and perhaps 3.6 too), that would be much appreciated! I'd *still* love to see a bunch of that stuff exported from the camel back end in the form of HTML/JS rather than native GUI code. It would make the e-mail-factory approach a whole lot saner. -- David WoodhouseOpen Source Technology Centre david.woodho...@intel.com Intel Corporation smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] About performance
Hello, Yes, I warned about this and disk problems some time ago. Now it's time to switch. Last version of evolution constantly crashed for me (the one comes with ubuntu 13.04). Sent a pair of bug reports with launchpad but I cannot continue use the program with this high degree of problems. I was a high evangelist of evolution but right now it has not the quality it used to have. Thunderbird seems to have progressed better and in a more robust way. It also handles sieve. I hope I can switch back to evolution when this kind of problems are solved. The most important one is performance because a mail client that is so slow is the worst of all usability problems. I have to say that all my friends also switched to Thunderbird and never looked back. Hope I can look back in near future because I used to love this application... (Evolution now!) Best regards, PS: I'm quite surprised to see that developers never saw the performance problem to come... Do you use evolution in your day to day work?

It constantly hangs or crashes and the interface is little responsive. This may be related to a massive widget leak that Milan discovered in the composer window. Widgets from closed composer windows were sticking around in memory and responding to events, which eats up CPU. So the more composer windows you create during an Evolution session the slower it gets. I believe the bulk of the leakage was fixed in GtkHTML 4.6.3.

Ubuntu 13.04, which was released in late April and is based on Gnome 3.6, provides Evolution 3.6.4, released 6 March 2013. Six or seven weeks later: pretty up-to-date. If you like Ubuntu and must have the 3.8 series you can go with Ubuntu Gnome and update to Gnome 3.8; same as with openSUSE. Now that Ubuntu is a sorta-kinda rolling release, I expect more up-to-date versions of everything to appear. Evolution is no longer the default MUA in Ubuntu, but it still integrates nicely with their version of the Gnome calendar. Works very well for me and my extended family. -- N. B.
