GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 310917
Rename label; create VFolder from search: Dialog shows previous label names
Last modified: 2012-05-31 10:22:55 UTC
Package: Evolution Priority: Minor Version: 1.2.2 Synopsis: Label Renaming and VFolders Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: UI Description: Description of Problem: After renaming a label, then selecting "Create Virtual Folder From Search", the "Label" criterion of the search rule dialog presents the old label names. Selecting the renamed label anyway, the resulting VFolder correctly filters emails labeled with that label, despite using differing names. The VFolder's property dialog continues to present the old name until Evolution is restarted, whereupon the new label name appears correctly. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Tools -> Settings -> Mail Preferences -> Colors, rename some label, [OK] 2. from some email's context menu, Label -> that renamed label 3. Search -> Create Virtual Folder From Search, in criteria panel change "Subject" to "Label" Actual Results: Third combo box, presenting labels by name, fails to reflect label name change. Expected Results: Said combo box uses the name change. How often does this happen? Every time I repeat the listed steps.

quoting fejj's comment on bug 260518: "the labels get initialised in whatever the locale was the first time they were initialised." so i guess this also has to do with the way/the moment the labels are loaded. :-/ are you able to verify this with a current version of evolution, like 2.2.x? evo-1.2.2 is now about five years old, and *nobody* will care about that version anymore... :-/
happens with 2.4.0, ubuntu bug about this: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14114
replicable with evolution-2.4.1.0.200510090310-0.snap.novell.0.1. confirming the bug
is this still an issue with evolution2.30?
This is fixed since 3.0/3.0, maybe earlier. I'm closing this as such.
