As with most people I presume I am running Evolution 2.32.2 inside 11.04 Natty and regardless how annoying the crashes are I prefer it to Thunderbird.

Obviously as soon as 11.10 Oneiric is released Evolution is being dropped which isnt too much of a problem as I intend to re-install it anyway.

Now to my question...

I want to upgrade Evolution to the latest version (3.0.02).
I downloaded the Tar.bz2 file and a MAKEFILE script created by Paul Smith.

The script checks for Evolutions dependencies along with some Phyton files. I downloaded all of these using sudo apt-get install (this took me ages) and continued to run the Makefile which simply hangs.

The Tar does come with an install-sh script which for the life of me I can not run in terminal as SH is not a valid command.

I have ./configure which tells me there is a problem with intltool being out of date which it isnt

Can someone take me through the process of installing from source in Ubuntu or tell me an easier way to update Evolution.

I have checked the depository and 2.32.2 is, according to the list, a current version
