By reading my 8:30AM (GMT -0400) message I am pasting down below just to make sure you READ it. (your "Install RPM" thread) In reply to your other query: I wouldn't goto experimental. That is not what you are looking for. I'd go with SID/Unstable. But listing Experimental as a source. All that means is that the Packaging of things is very volatile, and once in a while break but not anything worth fretting over. Even though you want these experimental packages you want to use SID with specifying the versions in experimental. My sources.list if available here: http://www.gregfolkert.net/files/sources.list Read the header information. I suggest you select unstable and uncomment the unstable lines, and make them for your country of origin. But also uncomment the experimental lines. Create an /etc/apt/apt.conf with the following lines in it: APT::Default-Release "unstable"; APT::Cache-Limit 20000000; Then do: (dselect|apt-get|aptitude) update Next: (apt-get|aptitude) -u dist-upgrade Then once all that is done: apt-get evolution/experimental evolution-exchange/experimental errors saying need this but that is installed, add those packages with the "/experimental" on the end until it installs successfully. Understand, I *AM* assuming your understand the implications of using SID with Experimental packages... so I'll leave it to you to make sure your actions are your own. BTW, there *IS* no need to copy me. I read the mail list. -- greg, greg@gregfolkert.net The technology that is Stronger, better, faster: Linux
