Hi - I am new to linus and trying to connect evolution to exchange 2007 using evolution-brutus plug in. However not able to complete the compiling stage. Can some one help where to download the following rpm. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Thanks in advance, Parthi

Welcome to LQ.

You shouldn't use an rpm to install a package on Ubuntu, because it's not the package format in use for this distribution.

Try this:
sudo apt-get install evolution-brutus

If it don't find it, try to find the right name with:
sudo apt-cache search evolution-brutus

or maybe:
sudo apt-cache search brutus

Don't know the package, but usually there is a README and an INSTALL file in the top source dir. If you read them, it may give you some pointers.

I tried and couldn't find an Ubuntu package for this plugin.

And unfortunately searching for "evolution brutus ubuntu package lucid lynx" (without the double quotes) in Google doesn't return any good news...

My guess is you better try another way to connect to exchange 2007.

How about 'sudo apt-get install evolution-exchange'
Will that do for your requirements ?


Brutus seems not to be used any more. Was included
in Fedora : The last one to have it, is Fedora 12.

I found no solution for building brutus-keyring (required)
on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid.
'evolution-brutus' : No luck so far on any Linux.
