Friendly neighborhood UNIX newbie here, trying to install Evolution (to allow access to Exchange data at work).
Item 1: I grabbed the 2.6 binary from Novell and attempted installation. Launching Evolution (X11 is up and operational) doesn't really get anywhere. I get various messages in the terminal concerning missing icons, suggestions of where to go get them, but I have no idea how to install them properly, etc. I would appreciate any help available to get Evolution up and running properly.
Item 2: The missing icon episode described above brought up some references to Fink, so I decided to install Fink and Fink Commander. I grabbed the Fink binary for MacOS X Intel, and installed away, but I always get a note that Fink cannot be installed, that the /sw directory already exists, etc. Fink Commander then is no help, as there is no Fink binary to use with it, etc. I'm ready to pull my hair out, but can't afford to do that, really!
Any helpful ideas appreciated.
