It can only help. As much as I love Evolution, I despise Ximian because
of how much of a mess it made of my system, and the whole "long in as
root and pipe a url through root" install method.  That and the
dependency hell.  I would imagine that Novell would be able to improve
on that.

We certainly live in interesting times. .  . .
