    <para>
      The <application>Evolution Data Server</application> package provides
      a unified backend for programs that work with contacts, tasks, and calendar
      information. It was originally developed for
      <application>Evolution</application> (hence the name), but is now used by
      other packages as well.

      access to google services via <xref linkend="libgdata"/> and also
      enables the Google Authentication option.

    <para>
      <parameter>-DENABLE_VALA_BINDINGS=ON</parameter>: This switch
      enables building the Vala bindings. Remove if you don't
      have <xref linkend="vala"/> installed.
    </para>

    <para>
      <parameter>-DENABLE_GTK_DOC=OFF</parameter>: This switch
      disables building the API documentation. It is broken for
      this package due to the use of a long deprecated gtk-doc program
      that is no longer available.
    </para>

    <para>
      <parameter>-DWITH_LIBDB=OFF</parameter>: This switch allows building
      this package without <xref linkend="db"/>.  This package only uses
      <xref linkend="db"/> to import data from very outdated releases.
      <xref linkend="sqlite"/> is used for normal operation.

    <para>
      <parameter>-DWITH_GWEATHER4=ON</parameter>: This switch allows building
      this package with <xref linkend="libgweather"/>.
