What were you doing when the application crashed?
I am running is OpenSuse 10.2 and I thought Novell is the creator of Evolution. How come all these anoying crashes?

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 and reopen this bug or report a new one. Thanks in advance!

Comment 6 Akhil Laddha 2009-12-17 10:37:29 UTC

This version is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any
further security or bug fix updates.
The current stable GNOME and Evolution version is 2.28.

Can you please check again whether this issue still happens in Evolution 2.26
or 2.28 and update this report by adding a comment and changing the "Version"
field? Thanks a lot.

Again thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed
for the version you originally used here.

Without feedback this report will be closed as INCOMPLETE in 6 weeks.

Comment 7 Akhil Laddha 2010-01-29 04:29:56 UTC

Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please 
feel free to reopen the bug if the problem still occurs with a newer
version of GNOME 2.28.2 or later, thanks.
