Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

Unfortunately, that stack trace is missing some elements that will help a lot to solve the problem, so it will be hard for the developers to fix that crash. Can you get us a stack trace with debugging symbols?

Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks!

Stack trace

 Hello. My computer knowledge is nearly non-existent, so please bear with me. I have tried to activate the debugging symbols, but for the file “libc.so.6” I have failed. I found two packages which seemed adequate (“libc6-dbg” and “libc-dbgsym”). I tried crashing “Evolution” once for each package, but no success (by the way the packages are incompatible, could not install both at the same time). Hope this helps anyway.

More detail on when this crash happens to me:
 1) Go to the "Notes" section.
 2) Click on a note (its content appears in the bottom-right frame).
 3) Select some text of the note.
 4) Leave Evolution alone in the background for a few minutes (browse a bit, check  Amule...)
 5) Try to activate Evolution again: more often than not, it  immediately crashes (just before the bug reporting program appears, you can see that the bottom-right frame is empty).

 Hello. Just in case this is more useful I have obtained the stack trace in another way. Thanks for your time and work.

Good stacktraces, thanks!  What did you say about your "computer knowledge"?
Dude, you did pretty well, the stacktraces are perfect. :)
