Description Зоран Рилак 2006-10-29 01:53:27 UTC

What were you doing when the application crashed?
Writing an e-mail, of course, Murphy said.  Apart from that, I clicked the collapse image button in an e-mail in my Inbox.  This has happened several times already but I usually ignore bugs unless they persist

Comment 1 Зоран Рилак 2006-10-29 01:55:47 UTC

There is almost certainly a bug already filed against this bug; I'm just changing the Description field since bug-buddy collected the first few words of my rant and filed a new one.

Comment 2 Christian Kirbach 2006-10-29 18:38:28 UTC

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 in advance!

Comment 3 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-11-02 00:59:58 UTC

Зоран, unfortunately the stacktrace does not have any hints about the real cause of the crash and does not help in debugging this issue.

However, according to the description this is the same issue as bug 333864,
which is fixed in Evolution 2.8.1.1.


Just in case you can reproduce this crash later, please consider installing
debugging packages [1], which help a lot in tracking down the crash.  Thanks!

Also, please feel free to report any further bugs you find.  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:
