From the build log you posted:

Code: Select all

configure: error: no backend enabled - refusing to continue:
Please install the development packages of Evolution and/or
set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable so that it points towards
the .pc files of libedataserver, libecal and libebook (the
latter two are optional).

You can check that these packages are available by running
pkg-config --list-all.

Have you run pkg-config --list-all? On the (E17) installation I'm typing this, I get:

Code: Select all

# pkg-config --list-all | grep evolution
evolution-data-server-1.2      evolution-data-server - The evolution data server for the calendar and addressbook
Failed to open '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/cblas.pc': No such file or directory
Failed to open '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgcj-4.3.pc': No such file or directory
libecal-1.2                    libecal - Client library for evolution calendars
libedata-book-1.2              libedatabook - Backend library for evolution address books
libedata-cal-1.2               libedata-cal - Backend library for evolution calendars
libebook-1.2                   libebook - Client library for evolution address books

Not sure, but you could try re-merging evolution-data-server and then doing a revdep-rebuild.

pkg-config gives this:

Code: Select all

evolution-data-server-1.2           evolution-data-server - The evolution data server for the calendar and addressbook
libecal-1.2                         libecal - Client library for evolution calendars
evolution-shell                     evolution-shell - libraries needed for Evolution shell components
evolution-mail                      Evolution Mail - Mail utilities for Evolution
libedata-book-1.2                   libedatabook - Backend library for evolution address books
libedata-cal-1.2                    libedata-cal - Backend library for evolution calendars
evolution-calendar                  Evolution Calendar - Calendar utilities for Evolution
evolution-plugin                    evolution-plugin - libraries needed for Evolution plugin development
libebook-1.2                        libebook - Client library for evolution address books


reinstalled evolution-data-server, have run sanity checks, which resulted only in reinstalling avidemux

tried to emerge syncevolution again, but with no succes

Code: Select all

configure: error: no backend enabled - refusing to continue:
Please install the development packages of Evolution and/or
set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable so that it points towards
the .pc files of libedataserver, libecal and libebook (the

maybe a relevant remark is that I use Entropy primary
