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. Could you please install some debugging packages [1], start the application as normal, 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 in advance! [1] debugging packages for evolution, evolution-data-server, gtkhtml, gtk, glib, gnome-vfs, libgnome and libgnomeui (as far as those packages are provided by your distribution). More details can be found here: http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces
Unfortunately the stacktrace does not have any hints about the real cause of the crash and does not help in debugging this issue. For some yet unknown reason, such stacktraces are pretty common currently on certain distributions. However, almost all of them do turn out to be filed already, once we managed to gather a useful stacktrace. To do so, simply install the corresponding debugging packages and reproduce the issue, if possible. The resulting stacktrace (see bug-buddy details) will help us to identify and fix the issue. Just in case you ever can reproduce this crash later, please consider installing debugging packages [1] and either reopen this bug report or simply file a new one with the resulting stacktrace. Thanks! Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided.
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. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 371529 ***
