    I've downloaded Evolution through Add/Remove Software.
    Basically I searched for 'evolution' and downloaded everything that it found.

    There was some error messages, but they mainly seemed to be sound dependancies.

    Ran evolution, went through the wizard and it appeared to be all okay. However when we try to create a new mail we get the following error messages:
    Could not create composer window.
    Unable to activate the HTML editor control.
    Please make sure that you have the correct version of gtkhtml and libgtkhtml installed.


    I've already downloaded f-spot so I thought I was in for an easy ride. But apparantly not.
    There seemed to be a lot of different gtkhtml available to download, but I get errors if I try that route.

    Would I have more luck if I deleted everything I've just downloaded and used the latest version on the Evolution website?

    Which version has everyone else managed to get working
