Did you configure a direct sync between phone and WebDAV server, as on your other machines? Can you quote the output? What kind of changes did you expect to get synced? > So, do we still need to have the Evolution backend packages in order > to run syncevolution, even if we aren't using Evolution itself? > > If so, the dependency listing in the .deb file needs to be updated so > that these are automatically installed if they aren't already there. No, the bundle should work fine without any Evolution libs installed. You bring up an interesting point, though (but not one of interest to you): the syncevolution-evolution meta package doesn't depend on any libecal and libebook version at the moment, because it is built to work with a variety of them (for example, libebook-1.2-x for x up to 13). I should add those dependencies and add a conflict with the upcoming libebook/ecal from EDS 3.6, because it won't be compatible with that. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter. _______________________________________________ SyncEvolution mailing list SyncEvolution@syncevolution.org http://lists.syncevolution.org/listinfo/syncevolution
