What were you doing when the application crashed? Nothing. I was just starting evolution and it crashed immediately. I tried several times, aways with the same result: evolution crashing immediately :( Distribution: Debian squeeze/sid Gnome Release: 2.22.3 2008-09-18 (Debian) BugBuddy Version: 2.24.2 System: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 X Vendor: The X.Org Foundation X Vendor Release: 10402000 Selinux: No Accessibility: Disabled GTK+ Theme: Clearlooks Icon Theme: SphereCrystal Memory status: size: 67964928 vsize: 67964928 resident: 16297984 share: 13111296 rss: 16297984 rss_rlim: 18446744073709551615 CPU usage: start_time: 1238554101 rtime: 50 utime: 42 stime: 8 cutime:0 cstime: 0 timeout: 0 it_real_value: 0 frequency: 100 Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/evolution' [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0xb5133770 (LWP 4389)] 0xb7f43424 in __kernel_vsyscall ()

Hi, googling for "evolution crash" [past 24 hours] ( http://www.google.com/search?q=evolution+crash&as_qdr=d ) revealed that I am not the only one :) I found my problem related to the bug report "Debian Bug report logs - #521862, evolution: Segmentation fault on startup" ( http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=521862 ) and could solve my problem by following the following advice: | On Tue, 2009-03-31 at 12:05 +0200, Svante Signell wrote: | > > I had the same problem and solved it by downgrading the sqlite3 | > packages (libsqlite3-0 and sqlite3) that were upgraded today. | > | > > Paulo Silva <pjs@eurotux.com> | > > Eurotux Informatica, S.A. | > | > Did not help: I downgraded to libsqlite3-0_3.6.11-3, still evolution | > does not start.
