Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find.


Although this stacktrace looks a little bit odd, I believe this to be another duplicate of bug 350981.

Comment 2 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-09-14 13:44:55 UTC

Hmm, a crash like this running a stable GNOME version...

What does running the command 'echo $G_DEBUG' in a terminal return?

Can you reproduce this crash reliably? Does it work, if you unset that var before starting Evo (if $G_DEBUG is set)? Please try reproducing the crash by starting Evo like this from a terminal -- does it work now?

$ unset G_DEBUG; evolution
