No doubt, but it should be fairly uncommon. If it happens it usually
means the package is poorly constructed.

Anyway, so as not to keep going round and round, the original point was
that the error message could be clearer, and that remains true.

this error can also pop up installing a pre-compiled package, afaik.

I think it's safe to assume that a user who's compiling Evo from the
sources has the requisite permissions. If he's not compiling from the
sources then he's installing a package and presumably this kind of error
is not going to arise.

this leads to even more questions - which readme file? where is that one
located? how should a normal user know how to edit an xml file? does the
user have permissions to edit it at all?

Ok - why is Evolution using MS type error messages
Why can't the error message say:

"Your /etc/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-config.xml doesn't match what Evo expects.
Are you sure you edited the XML file as per the instructions in the Evo README?"

Indeed that was the issue.  I should have paid more attention to the
README.  Just too used to untar, configure, make, make install...
I will note that the first time I tried to build several days ago that I
used the default location (/usr) for UBUNUTU with the same startup
failure and it took me a bit of time to get 2.6.3 back, which is why I
configured for /opt/evolution this time,,, so that I would not blow away
my working 2.6 until i knew that the new 2.8 build would work( that
build attempt was from CVS, rather than from the already bzipped
tarballs).

Thanks to all for the responses, esp Patrick -- I'll now do a
reconfigure to --prefix=/usr  and make and install everything
properly.

Built evo 2.8.0 from source .bz2 files downloaded from
http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/download.shtml


platform, UBUNTU dapper LTS.

My configure/make/install instructions are listed at the bottom...

after configure/make/install,,,

$ export PATH=/opt/evolution/bin:$PATH
$ /opt/evolution/bin/evolution-2.8

this results in terminal output of:

CalDAV Eplugin starting up ...
error : unterminated entity referenceExit

and an error popup with the text and associated buttons Help/Cancel:

Evolution can not start.

Your system configuration does not match your Evolution
configuration.

Click help for details

Can someone provide insight as to why I'm getting this error and how to
correct it?

Harish is talking about 350907 - fd leak bug.  Your analysis is very
valid and correct, however, pipes were getting created on demand and the
current implementation is done to fix a bug.  See [1] for the commit log
and fix.

BTW, Can you attach the analysis code that you had put in e-msgport.c to
measure those things?

This was a bug and it has been fixed now - the fix is available on
Evolution 2.8 - the latest stable version. [hint :upgrade. :-)]
Varadhan : It would be nice to have this committed to the evolution-2.6
