Hello, all.
I've been fooling around with the Brutus packages here for a few days
without too much success, and I've pored over the list archives also
with mixed success, and I still have lots of questions, so I'm hoping
you can help set me on the right track.
As far as the Brutus Server, I have it installed right now on a VMware
image running XP Pro which I am using as a desktop, so I have Outlook
installed there as well. I gather from what I came across on the list
this is a bad idea, and that I ought to use a host without Outlook
installed but rather the MS MAPI and CDO 1.2.1 package from Microsoft.
Is this correct?
Also, my Linux desktop is Red Hat Enterprise v5.2, so I guess I'm left
to build my own packages (or borrow from the Fedora ones), but the
version numbers of the src RPMs and tarballs are a bit confusing to my
feeble mind.
For example, I first got the source tarballs for brutus-keyring which
were listed as version 0.9.11 and managed to get the
configure/make/install to work. I then got the source tarball for
evolution-brutus, which I found at version 1.2.17. I also got that to
configure/make/install with some tweaking. Evolution saw it as an
account type and I configured an account to test, but no luck connecting
to the server.
When I went to check out the src RPMs for brutus-keyring and
evolution-brutus for Fedora 8 I found brutus-keyring version 0.9.24-1,
which built without errors using rpmbuild --rebuild. So I installed the
resulting RPM.
Flush with that success I found evolution-brutus version 1.2.11-1 for
Fedora 8, did an rpmbuild --rebuild and installed the RPM. But when I
ran evolution from the command line it died with the following message:
% evolution
CalDAV Eplugin starting up ...
evolution-shell-Message: Killing old version of
evolution-data-server...
libnm_glib_nm_state_cb: dbus returned an error.
(org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown) The name
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service
files
evolution: symbol lookup
error: /usr/lib64/evolution-data-server-1.2/camel-providers/libcamelbrutus.so: undefined symbol: brutus_D
So, without any other clue, I considered there may be some library
version match-up problem. So, I went to look for the Fedora 7 package,
and found version 1.1.28.7-1. Wait, wasn't I just building version
1.2.11? Then I remembered the original source tarball I downloaded was
1.2.17.
So, what version should I be looking to build for my RHEL 5 desktop?
Should I bother with the Fedora source (or binary) packages? Just go
straight to source tarballs and configure/make/install (but the versions
seem behind some of the src RPMs)? What do you recommend?
Thanks for your advice,
-Norm
