Does this happen always? Also, what's the exact Evolution Ubuntu package version?


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. More details can
    be found here:

hello,
Not each time.

version :
evolution 2.8.1-0ubuntu4
evolution-data-server 1.8.1-0ubuntu3
evolution-data-server-common 1.8.1-0ubuntu3

sorry, I can't reproduce the bug yet.

I installed the debugging package.

I'm waiting for the next bug-buddy message.

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback. :)

evolution 2.8.1-0ubuntu4, is that the version you already had installed when you last experienced this crash?

OK, so we definitely need a better stacktrace...

I followed the link to have a better trace,
and that tells me to copy paste from bug-buddy.
I'm not sure there's more informations.

True, unfortunately, that's about the same.

Looking at the last trace it does not seem like the debugging packages are installed. We do need them. Please see comment 1, especially note [1] about which debugging packages are required, and the link on how to do so.


Tried hunting the exact packages you should install. I'm kind of sure these are the ones:

  evolution-dbg, evolution-data-server-dbg, libgtkhtml3.8-dbg
  libglib2.0-0-dbg, libgtk2.0-0-dbg
