 Posted: Sun Mar 29, 2009 4:43 am Post subject: Compiling Evolution-MAPI from source (no ebuilds) |
 |
|
I don't have the necessary ebuilds but a small guide for compiling & installing it by hand. It will go into /usr/local and therefore not collide with portage-installed packages. Oh, and have a look at the Gentoo bugzilla entry for evolution-mapi.
First of all we need the latest release of Samba 4. It's a dependency for libmapi which we also need because it's the foundation for the Evolution-MAPI plug-in.
Download these three and unpack them. First we need Samba 4 compiled, so go to the source4 directory inside your unpacked Samba distribution and run the usual build commands (./configure && make && su -c "make install" or whatever). Now you should have a fresh Samba 4 install inside of /usr/local/samba/.
Next step ist building libmapi, which is a little harder since you have to tell it where it can find the Samba 4 libs it needs. ./configure --with-samba=/usr/local/samba/ does the trick though and you can make and make install as usual.
Last package is the plug-in. I spend way too much time trying to figure out how to configure it. | Code: | | PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/samba/lib/pkgconfig/ ./configure |
is the way to go.
Don't fire up Evolution yet, I had to make a couple of symlinks before the plug-in worked:
| Code: | ln -s /usr/local/samba/lib/libldb.so /usr/local/samba/lib/libldb.so.0
ln -s /usr/local/samba/lib/libndr.so /usr/local/samba/lib/libndr.so.0
ln -s /usr/local/samba/lib/libsamba-hostconfig.so /usr/local/samba/lib/libsamba-hostconfig.so.0 |
Now, if you want to run Evolution, you have to tell it where some of the libs are, so call it with | Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/samba/lib/ evolution |
Let me know if it works. I was able to create a new account in Evolution, log in with my credentials and then... nothing. No folder list. The problem seems to be with my workplaces setup which is messed up right now though, so maybe it will work for you.

i too compiled all the stuff last friday to be able to use evolution with our newly installed exchange server 2007.
i did end up at the same point: login is successful but at the console i get an error saying that it is unable to get the folder list.
i ran mapitest pointing it at the database inside my .evolution directory and it runs with only 2 (minor) errors out of 78 tests (iirc, as i'm not at work on sunday  )
so i think the mapi-connection is correct and i didn't get any further. i will post the complete (or relevant part of) console-log on monday (and i don't like mondays  ) when i'm at work. i would really like to get this working, as it's a great improvement and i can go on using linux at work

good morning 
and here we go.
starting evolution, i get the following on the console:
| Code: | ~ $ evolution
Type EPluginMono registered from the mono-plugin-loader
** (evolution:3788): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution %s
** (evolution:3788): DEBUG: mailto URL program: evolution

it looks like the connection is successfully established, but the mapi-provider is unable to get the folder list. why? 
ok, now, when i run mapitest i get this:
| Code: | ~ $ mapitest -f .evolution/mapi-profiles.ldb

Anyone do this recently? Got everything built (i.e samba4, openchange, libmapi, etc.) but i'm failing evolution-mapi with the following:
| Code: |
