Description Luca Foppiano 2009-01-08 22:23:38 UTC

What were you doing when the application crashed?
I started evolution (I don't have my default email account enabled because it doesn't work today). I push ctrl+n, then I went on signature tab and press down button. Evolution 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.
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:

Comment 3 Akhil Laddha 2009-01-09 11:23:55 UTC

oh..i really don't know why after installing all these debug info rpms, traces are missing symbols. 

Is it always reproducible ?  If yes, we can request Matthew to look into it.

Comment 4 Luca Foppiano 2009-01-09 13:17:51 UTC

yes, you should have to:

1) disable your default account
2) create a new mail (in the from you should have a blank selection)
3) click on signature and choose one.

Tell me if it's work.

Thanks
Luca

Comment 6 Akhil Laddha 2009-02-06 10:11:17 UTC

Milan, what do you feel - it's a regression of bug 554326 or a separate one

Comment 7 Milan Crha 2009-02-06 10:46:10 UTC

This seems as a new thing to me.

Comment 8 Milan Crha 2009-02-09 15:29:57 UTC

Created attachment 128302 [details] [review]
proposed evo patch

foe evolution;

it crashes to me only when I select autogenerated signature, otherwise it doesn't crash. This fix prevents a crash, the autogenerated behaves as None in this particular case.

Comment 9 Srinivasa Ragavan 2009-02-12 08:36:31 UTC

Commit it, but don't close the bug for now. Stable/trunk.
