After upgrading to Ubuntu 11.10, existing Groupwise accounts do not work in Evolution. If I try to create a new account, there is no option to choose a Groupwise account. It appears that this functionality is no longer built in to Ubuntu 11.10 and the package "evolution-groupwise" is not available in the repositories...

Transcribed answer from the Ubuntu forums:
Start by installing git
sudo apt-get install git
Next, download the source code (several commands)
git clone git://git.gnome.org/evolution-groupwise
cd evolution-groupwise
git checkout -b 3.2.0-patch EVOLUTION_GROUPWISE_3_2_0
# This is the patch for the SOAP port bug
git cherry-pick 3aae80f55d5fd565274f19210564e74d5350a66c
Using any editor, edit configure.ac
at about line 48 add the line
AC_CHECK_LIB(gthread-2.0, g_thread_init)
Install the dependencies
sudo apt-get build-dep evolution
Compile
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install
Last, using any editor, edit /etc/services
add in the lines
groupwise 1677/tcp
groupwise 1677/udp
