Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

I know, you have filed several bugs and you say, you have debug packages installed.
However, 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.
(rule of thumb: the more question marks are in the stacktrace, the less debug symbols could be found and it's actually essential for us, to get especially debug symbols for evolution libraries like here:

+ Trace 160836

#4 ??
from /usr/lib/libebook-1.2.so.9


Maybe you should report downstream, that you are not able to produce stracktraces.

However, if you did not install debug packages at the time of the crasher and can reproduce this crash, you maybe could try to get a good trace and post it here.

[oli@ascension ~]$ rpm -qa | grep debuginfo

glib2-debuginfo-2.12.11-1.fc7

Heh yes, I'm kinda swimming in fc7 crash bugs here - I don't know how the developers and bug triagers handle it... Am I missing any debuginfo packages that we need to sort this out?

If I'm missing some, let me know. I'm chasing up the eds vs. eds-debuginfo versioning issue now.
