unique stacktrace according to simpledupfinder, adding version number
adding dep to calendar crasher tracking bug
(one of the critical crasher that are only in unstable desktop versions.) retargetting.
I don't recall seeing this again in a while...
g_assert (GTK_BIN (priv->ending_special)->child == NULL); hmm... haven't seen any duplicates... removing old target milestone. :-/
Followed the instructions and couldn't reproduce the crash with Evo 2.9.3 and libgnomeui 2.17 under Ubuntu Feisty.
I was also unable to reproduce with Evolution 2.8.3 on Gentoo. Shouldn't this bug be closed?
Sorry, I did not meant to close the bug myself! Please reopen it if necessary.
oh well... let's keep it closed, we haven't had any dups anymore and two people could not reproduce this :-)
