Evolution palm-sync contact conduit broken -- shameful hack

[Guest]

Ximian has been notified that there's a bug in Evolution that hampers compilation of the contact conduit used in palm synchronization.

In the mean time, I recommend the following workaround: edit the .ebuild file for whichever version of evolution you're using, and comment out the line

libtoolize -- copy --force

(line 39 in 1.0.3-r4) I feel dirty, but it works.

(Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. I didn't find anything except a bugzilla entry saying that it had been reported to Ximian, and Ximian wasn't responding.)
