Description Hrishi 2002-02-27 07:49:01 UTC 
Description of Problem: Evolution summary crashes when loading RSS/RDF
data. It does not crash unless I'm on the internet. Sometimes it shows
trash data in the headlines sections before going down. I can reproduce
this indefinitely to provide more information.


Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go online (connect to the internet)
2. click on Summary in the folders list

Actual Results:
Summary either shows trash characters or crashes with gnome segv popping up
for 'evolution-executive-sumamry' . need to restart ev to access summary
again.

Expected Results:
News headlines/weather details.

How often does this happen? 
Every time I access the summary page while online.

Additional Information:
can be obtained as required.
Comment 1 colin robertson 2002-05-03 11:06:06 UTC 
To give a little more information, I'm getting a crash like this in
Evolution 1.0.3 on Debian, but it seems to only be caused by certain
newsfeeds. The one newsfeed I've found so far which causes a crash is
iRights <http://www.jerf.org/irights/rss.xml>, but there isn't
anything obviously wrong with that feed. I've tried a number of other
feeds which have been fine.

Now, if anyone would like to tell me which config file I have to hack
to get iRights out of my summary, that'd be really nice. :)
Comment 2 Iain 2002-05-03 11:32:18 UTC 
A backtrace from gdb would be nice information to have.
If you go offline, and then bring up the summary preferences you
should be able to remove the irights from the list of shown rdf files.
Comment 3 colin robertson 2002-05-03 16:14:51 UTC 
This was gained by crashing the summary, getting the GNOME crash
dialog up, running "gdb evolution-executive-summary 773" and then
doing "bt". I don't know if it's a problem, but none of my binaries
have debugging symbols. Let me know if you want more.
