There are 3 ways to get a usable evolution in testing, which are all documented in the related bugs at bugs.debian.org/evolution: Either to run evolution with the G_SLICE=always-malloc workaround, to downgrade libglib2.0-0 and libpango1.0-0 to 2.8/1.10, or to upgrade with unstable versions of evolution, evolution-data-server and libgtkhtml3.8-15. We had hoped that the fixed versions in unstable should have transitioned to testing by now, but it has been stalled by issues further down in the dependcy-chain (gnome-vfs2 licensing not being one of those) > Where exactly does one get packages in the NEW queue? They're not in > incoming (why?), nor are they findable from alioth.debian.org If you want to play around with stuff from alioth (which is what eventually becomes packages) you can get it from the subversion-repositories at svn.debian.org. NEW packages are not approved by the ftp-masters and thus not yet a part of Debian, so they are not available. As it is now, gnome 2.14-versions of evolution-data-server (and hopefully evolution) will hit experimental tonight, and you'll also probably see them in unstable eventually. I'd also like to say that the (very) recent introduction of 2 new members into the team of Debian evolution-maintainers (myself and Øystein Gisnås) will help bring about higher quality packages of evolution and friends in Debian, as there are now, finally, active maintainers of evolution who are also users ;) We would still like some extra help with bug-triaging, tho' :) (hint-hint) Cheers, Heikki
