Comment 1 Akhil Laddha 2008-05-16 05:04:11 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.
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, evolution-exchange, gtkhtml, gtk, glib, libsoup, gnome-vfs, libgnome, orbit2 and libgnomeui (as far as those packages are provided by your distribution). More details can be found here:
http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces
Comment 2 Thomas Hager 2008-05-16 09:48:58 UTC
hi,

i will install the packages and will paste
the relevant infos when another crash happens.

unfortunately i cannot reproduce the crash, so don't expect
to get data anytime soon :)

kr,
tom.
