[Bug 508582] New: Evolution network manager integration doesn't work
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508582 Summary: Evolution network manager integration doesn't work Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Evolution AssignedTo: bnc-team-evolution@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jbottomley@novell.com QAContact: lakhil@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=295384) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=295384) Path to the specfile to fix build to make network manager integration work User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042700 SUSE/3.0.10-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.10 Default evolution listens for NetworkManager dbus events and takes evolution online and offline accordingly. It looks like this feature is intended to work in our version of evolution. However, a patch (patch6 in the spec file) to try to get evolution to build with this feature but without the network manager broke the feature. I'm guessing this happened in version 2.24 otherwise it would have been reported sooner. I think the best fix for this is simply to follow upstream and stop trying to build without the NetworkManager-devel package. The attached patch fixes the problem for me.

--- Comment #2 from James Bottomley
Not sure if upstream patch makes any difference here

In any case, patch should be reviewed and appropriate action should be taken for 11.2
The patch looks OK, but it's not the root cause of the problem. The root cause is that we build without the network manager libraries. The autobuild scripts in evolution see this and don't build in the necessary components for listening to the network dbus events. I've rebuilt our current (11.1) evolution with networkmanager-devel present and it seems to work just fine. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
