Re: [SyncEvolution] SyncEvolution on Harmattan

Hello,
I have been using SyncEvolution intensively on a Maemo N900.
Right now I have a Nokia N950 with MeeGo Harmattan and the wish to
continue using SyncEvolution with my private Funambol server.
I spent some time on searching for ways to achieve this but did not succeed.
This is my understanding:
SyncEvolution supports MeeGo and is preinstalled on the Netbook images
but seems to be not available on Harmattan?
Hmm. Interesting. I had assumed SyncEvolution would be available on
Harmattan. Thus, I figured I had no reason to apply for a N950 myself (I
didn't have any other concrete and convincing plans for it). I
understand the N950 is relatively fragile, and if I can't safely take it
with me everywhere, it probably wouldn't really be useful to me anyway.
I decided to just wait and buy the N9 when it comes out, and then just
do my development once I get one of those.
Perhaps I would have applied for a N950 if I had known that
SyncEvolution wasn't already on Harmattan.
Are there plans to support Harmattan?
I suppose you might have to wait until I get a N9 - unless someone else
does it first. (Or, I suppose, someone gives me their N950, but I won't
be holding my breath waiting for that.)
Or is it just a matter of proper installation or compiling the
package?
I'm not sure. I took a look at some Harmattan docs, and it seems that
calendar-backend may have been replaced with "mkcal". Perhaps
SyncEvolution's existing kcalextended backend would work with mkcal. For
contacts, I suspect they now use qtcontacts instead of ebook, so perhaps
SyncEvolution's qtcontacts backend would also work.
