Please upgrade evolution-mapi to 0.28.1

[Thomas Novin]

Binary package hint: evolution-mapi

evolution-mapi 0.28.1 was released 2009-10-19

http://git.gnome.org/cgit/evolution-mapi/

Can this update please be included in Karmic? The one in the archives now crashes when you retrieve an email which makes it pretty useless.

[Bill Hayden (bill-hayden)]

Upgrading to evolution-mapi 0.28.1 will almost certainly fix the various problems reported in 404217 as well. Big, huge thumbs-up from me!

Debian already has a deb for 0.28.1, though it will need some repackaging to work with 9.10:

You can use packages from Keith Buel PPA ( https://launchpad.net/~kbuel/+archive/ppa ). In my case, his package fixes all my issues and evolution-mapi works now like a charm. Thanks to him

[Martijn (martijn.niji)]

When can we expect this to be rolled out? (since it has confirmed status?)

[Martijn (martijn.niji)]

I can confirm that Keiths PPA package works like a charm.... for reading email. But as soon as I try to access my calendar, it all goes haywire. My network traffic and disk i/o skyrocket and Evolution just hangs.

This includes meeting requests which Evolution say: email claims to contain a calendar but its not a valid icalendar.

[Martijn (martijn.niji)]

Note: It turned out that it was the evolution-data-server-2.28 process which was causing the network traffic, disk io and cpu to go haywire...

I decided to let it run its course and after about ten minutes it calmed down again... now my calendar seems to be working without significant problems.

Can someone from SRU team approve this micro release upload? Let me know if there is any information missing.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

SRU ack. I reviewed the diff, and it looks fine (most of it is just autoconf noise anyway, and the code changes look sane).

Please upload to lucid and karmic-proposed. Thanks!

[Onkar Shinde (onkarshinde)]

Martin,

I wanted to upload latest upstream version of evolution-mapi (0.29.4) to lucid. But it fails to compile because it needs evolution-data-server >= 2.29.4 which lucid doesn't have yet.
So I will just upload this micro-release 0.28.2 to karmic proposed.

[darren (darrenm)]

When is this going to be in Karmic-proposed please?

[Onkar Shinde (onkarshinde)]

@darren,

The package is in queue for karmic-proposed. I am trying to get it reviewed ASAP.

[stevecarl (steve-carl)]

Thanks. I hit refresh about 4 times a day right now waiting for this!

@stevecarl,

The PPA mentioned above (ppa:kbuel/ppa) has had this package or equivalent since 2009-12-15 :)

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

Accepted into karmic-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

[RainerT (tr-ml)]

Yeah, I can connect and read mail on Exchange 2007, works so far.

[stevecarl (steve-carl)]

@ThomasNovin

I had already tried that, and Evolution crashed prompty on account setup: Something that does not apparently happen to others. It also crashes in such a way that no debugging is triggered to submit.

I had hoped that it was just a PPA thing, but the GA version acts exactly the same.

Tried fresh account setup on fresh userid even. I assume at this point that I have a package on that is not compatible with evo-mapi, but I have no idea what it is.

I also have a 10.04 box, and so am waiting for the package to appear there to see what happens: I think I am probably facing a very careful rebuild of the 9.10 system to get this working now though.

Martin,

When can we expect the package to be copied to karmic-updates?
