EvoDB is an Evolution plugin that allows users to access their CouchDB databases directly from the calendar and address book. The plugin makes it easy to keep track of appointments and contacts, and also enables seamless synchronization between Evolution and CouchDB.
1. Move to the directory containing the source code of the package and type './configure' to configure your system for the package. If you are an old version of System V user, using 'csh,' you may need to indicate 'sh ./configure instead to avoid csh from attempting to execute configure on its own. Run configure and wait for a while as it prints progress messages.
2. Type 'make' and compile the package. For self-tests that come with the package, type 'make check'. However, you can skip step three if you wish.
3. To avoid cluttering your computer, type 'make clean' to remove program binaries and object files from the source code directory. If you need to compile the package for another kind of computer, removing files that 'configure' created type 'make distclean'. Package developers can use the 'make maintainer-clean' target, but the users of this program may have to get all sorts of other programs to regenerate files that come with the distribution.
Overall, evolution-couchdb is an incredible tool that makes accessing CouchDB databases for contacts a breeze. If you follow the installation steps correctly, you should have access to the program in no time.
