Try putting a -u in the command to tell apt to upgrade to new packages.

Try this:

apt-get install evolution/unstable

Will this work in apt-rpm? I looked at the manpage for apt-get and it didn't say - that I could tell, anyway.

It's listed as apt version 0.5.4.

PS: Evolution was in Knoppix 3.2, but not in 3.3. Is that correct? Bummer....

Try this:

apt-get install evolution/unstable

You mean apt4rpm? I don't really know much about apt4rpm, but I'm not sure that this will work since apt rpm repositories are not necessairly set up like Debian with stable, testing, and unstable brances. I could be wrong though. Give it a try with the -s option and see what happens. I assume you are doing this this with redhat, fedora, or mdk.

Well from what I understand it was too much to include all the Gnome2 dependencies to make it work and fit w/in the 700mb limit of Knoppix. There are other live distros that include it and it can easily be installed once you do a hd install and have more space.
