GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 363330
crash in Evolution: Switching from vertical ...
Last modified: 2006-10-21 05:36:18 UTC
What were you doing when the application crashed? Switching from vertical view to classic view. I had just restarted Evolution to find that all of my views have gone missing. Before restarting I was looking at the view editor. In the view editor I selected to create a new view, hit cancel (I was surprised I couldn't copy from another view and didn't want to start from scratch) and closed the dialog. I then closed Evolution.

Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Could you please install some debugging packages [1] and reproduce the crash, if possible? Once bug-buddy pops up, you can find the stacktrace in the "details", now containing way more information. Please copy that stacktrace and paste it as a comment here. Thanks! [1] debugging packages for evolution, evolution-data-server and gtkhtml, plus debugging packages for some basic GNOME libs.
