Comment 1 Akhil Laddha 2008-05-08 14:24:40 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:

The only debug package available for Debian Testing that I didn't have installed already was libgtkhtml-3.8-dbg_3.12.3-3_i386 - I'm installed that now, but I suspect that the missing packages are going to have to be compiled with debugging on, in order to get to the bottom of this.

Debug packages at present are:
evolution-data-server-dbg                2.22.1-1
evolution-dbg                            2.22.1-1
evolution-exchange-dbg                   2.22.1.dfsg-1
gnome-panel-dbg                          2.20.3-3
libc6-dbg                                2.7-10
libglib1.2-dbg                           1.2.10-19
libglib2.0-0-dbg                         2.16.3-2
libgnomeui-0-dbg                         2.20.1.1-1
libgnomevfs2-0-dbg                       1:2.22.0-2
libgtk2.0-0-dbg                          2.12.9-3
libgtkhtml3.14-dbg                       3.18.1-1
libgtkhtml3.8-dbg                        3.12.3-3
libldap-2.4-2-dbg                        2.4.7-6.2
libpango1.0-0-dbg                        1.20.2-2

If you need something else, let me know, and I'll go make a debug package of it. Otherwise, I'm still sitting here in the dark trying to guess what's going wrong...

If you are getting crash often, can you please provide better traces. It would be really helpful, thanks.
