Rubber Turnip Evolution - AvantGo and Memo conduits?
I know I sound like a broken record, still asking for the AvantGo and Memo conduits for gnome-pilot, but I went to James' site (rubberturnip) and saw that he had new evolution RPMs. I was wondering if someone (maybe james) could comment on whether these missing conduits are in the evolution-pilot rpm.

Nope, the evolution-pilot package contains the Evolution conduits for syncing Evo's addressbook, calendar & to-do list with the standard Palm versions.

Offline news. It's pretty cool. I just need to figure out how to get it working under 8.2. By the way, thanks for putting together a Phoenix RPM. I LOVE Phoenix on my computer at work (Windows) and now I get the same experience at home. Preston

Is there a particular reason that you're using gnome-pilot rather than pilot-link and (for example) JPilot? Because pilot-link supports Memo natively, and there is an AvantGo conduit for pilot-link (malsync) and a coresponding plugin for JPilot (SyncMal).

The main reason being that I already sync evolution so why not just do everything via gnome-pilot. I used to under 8.1 when Ximian provided all the conduits. I'm giving malsync a try, but I'm not sure how to install it given that I can't find the directory for pilot-link. Preston

TBH, this sounds more like you need to chase Ximian - if they used to supply something and don't any more, you might be able to badger them into providing new versions. Do the memo and avantgo conduits come as plugins? If so, you should (hah!) be able to get these working without rebuilding the whole of evolution...

They will eventually, but only when Red-Carpet supports SuSE 8.2, I imagine. I could dry the 8.1 version, but I'm not sure that I want to risk it.

That's what I thought too, but I haven't found anywhere to download individual conduits. That's why I've been asking around. Preston

What you could try is to grab the 8.1 RPMs, use alien to convert them to tarballs, and then extract the .so, .a, .la and .conduit files you need... Then, pop the .so, .a and .la files into /opt/gnome/lib/gnome-pilot/conduits and the .conduit files into /opt/gnome/share/gnome-pilot/conduits and see if that works If not, just remove the files again -- James Ogley, Webmaster, Rubber Turnip james@rubberturnip.org.uk http://www.rubberturnip.org.uk Jabber: riggwelter@myjabber.net Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 8.2) GNOME updates for SuSE: http://www.usr-local-bin.org

Thanks. I should have thought of that. That worked. At least it seems to have worked. Preston
