Yes...given the liberal upgrade policy of Fedora, we should probably downgrade it there too, I'm just kinda used to not making major changes to released distros (even to something as fundamentally broken as opensync) so I didn't suggest that to Andreas, just focused on Rawhide. I guess he may go ahead and do that once we're happy with the stuff in Rawhide. > It's strange, that even nobody knows how it should be configured, > because the syncml-ds-tool works here without any problems to get my contacts > from my phone to my Fedora box, but it is the other way round, that I really > need.

As I keep saying, you basically can't sync any real data to or from a real device (or even a non-device plugin like Evo or KDEPIM) with opensync 0.3 in its current state. It's not a question of "it's really difficult to configure and entirely undocumented" (which is, also, pretty much true), it's just a case of it actually flat out does not work. The code is not yet capable of doing it. *In addition* to this, with the current state of development, the configuration you have to do to get to the state where things will in-theory work but in-practice won't is also quite difficult - AIUI from the mailing list discussion (I haven't bothered to test this personally because there's just no point, it still wouldn't actually work) there's a bit of configuration that none of the actual opensync tools handle yet, so you'd have to go in and poke the partnership configuration files manually. And it still wouldn't work. (Juha will correct me on that if I'm wrong, I'm sure - Juha, I'm talking about the capabilities stuff). But yeah, you are not ever going to be able to sync any real data with the packages in Fedora 10 currently. It just won't work. Backport the packages from Rawhide - libsyncml, libwbxml, and all of opensync, or build 0.22 from source yourself, and you may be in with a fighting chance.
