beagled crashes (probably due to missing library)

[Andreas Leitner]

After starting beagled (with the evolution plugin installed) it crashes with the following output:

aleitner@se-pc31:~$ beagled --fg

It looks like the root of all evil is that libedataserver-1.2.so.4 cannot be located and in fact I have only version .7 installed on my machine. The .4 version does not seem to be available.

[Phil Housley (undeconstructed)]

Comment and workaround in bug #30121 I think.

[Andreas Leitner (aleitner)]

Indeed, the workaround described in bug #30121 did the trick. beagle is not crashing for the 10 minutes that I tested it now and is slowely but steadily indexing all my mail. Thanks!
