Evolution connector and Fedora 8

[cpondteam345]

Help!!
I was using Fedora 7 on my laptop, and just upgraded to Fedora 8 last night. After I did this, Evolution no longer works with my MS-Exchange server (previously used the evolution-connector).
When evolution starts, I get the error message:

Error while Opening folder exchange://<mailbox removed here for security reasons>/personal/Inbox.
Could not connect to Evolution Exchange backend process: Please restart Evolution


When I look at all the rpms installed for Evolution, I see:

evolution-webcal-2.12.0-1.fc8
evolution-sharp-0.12.2-2.fc7
evolution-connector-2.10.3-1.fc7
evolution-data-server-1.12.1-2.fc8
evolution-2.12.1-3.fc8

Why do I have fc7 versions of some of the pieces? None of those pieces seem to have fc8 versions. Is this going to be fixed or is there a workaround? If there are no plans to fix this, I'm going to have to revert to F7.

I've been having this problem too...

When I tried to run /usr/libexec/evolution-exchange-storage manually, it complained about:

/usr/libexec/evolution-exchange-storage: error while loading shared libraries: libeutil.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


So, I ran ldconfig on /usr/lib/evolution/2.12, then I could get the exchange storage working. But, it wasn't getting any new messages

As I type this, I've just been alerted to 77 new security updates, one of them being evolution-exchange-storage so before reverting back to F7, I'll hold my breath for the download...

Ok, that seemed to do the trick for me...

I'm now able to expand my exchange account, and see messages in the various folders I have set. I tried sending a test message from outside my network and was pleasantly surprised with the notification alert on the gnome-panel. So, it looks like the recent update (evolution-exchange-2.12.1-1.fc8) fixed the problem.
