Folks, Evo update on my 4.x worked just fine. 5.0 generated a bunch of parsing errors preceded and followed by a couple of I/O errors that appear related to an unavailable URL. I first figured corruption on my node, so I yum erased evo, its - connector and -webcal units. The data-server removal looked as if it might remove half my Gnome desktop, so I left it in place. Then I did a selective reinstall. The edited results follow. I believe the very first error is the cause. I erased and installed multiple times, even trying the connector plugin figuring maybe it was needed to download files from a website. No-go. I was able to wget the docbook w/NP. Any suggestions? Not critical, I only run evo on my 4.X. But I've begun a slow and careful migration to my 5.0, letting it serve as back up for now.
