Steps to reproduce the crash: 1. Mount a smb filesystem from a server (I am mounting a filesystem from a windows server) 2.

Edit a new mail and attach this file to the mail dragging the file from nautilus Expected Results: File is attached How often does this happen? always Additional Information: Attaching the file works when the filename does not contain norwegian (8bit) characters) or the file is located on local disk I am running: evolution-2.5.4-6 evolution-connector-2.5.4-1 evolution-data-server-1.5.4-4 Debugging Information: Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/evolution' (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

Thanks for the bug report; adding version number. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance very much.
Evolution version in use: evolution-connector-2.5.4-1 evolution-2.5.4-10 evolution-data-server-1.5.4-4 I am not able to get trace using the hints specified. I am using gdb as specified. Please instruct me if you want me to do more testing here.
Svenole: Start evolution using gdb, paste stack traces of evolution when it crashes. If the stack traces are still same, install evolution with debugging symbols from ftp://ftp.ximian.com and then paste the stack traces here.
svenole: run evolution in gdb by running "gdb evolution", if evo crashes, type "thread apply all bt". paste the output here, and reopen this bug report. thanks very much in advance!
Svenole: Closing this bug as there is no update on this bug. Please reopen if you get the traces with debug information
