Comment 8 for bug 248705

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, the problem was with "the plethora of other .deb
files produced" :) I installed only evolution-data-server from your ppa
repository (I thought the other ones are ; after installing other related
files, it works now. I'll post a comment for this bug.

thanks again and best regards,
Krzysztof
