Evolution on 7.2?

Hello,

I was looking at today's Evolution Beta 3 announcement and even though I personally don't like gnome (Sorry, but I think GTK is very ugly. I like my KDE eye candy), I decided it might be worth trying out Evolution while eternally waiting for Aethera and Kmail to get to a place I'm satisfied with.

Unfortunately, on Ximian's FTP site they only have SuSE 6.3 and SuSE 6.4 rpms (I guess they don't appreciate SuSE's support of KDE. There can't possibly be as many 6.x users out there as there are 7.x).

There's 16 rpms, which doubtless will destroy my gnome/gtk installation if they aren't kosher (thereby breaking the few GTK apps I use). Is it worth trying to install these, or should I wait for SuSE 7.2 packages?

Is SuSE or Ximian or anyone planning on making any rpms for 7.2?
