GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 273155
BBDB warning spew ...
Last modified: 2021-05-19 12:28:30 UTC
I'm getting a lot of: [snip]: BBDB spinning up... ** (evolution-2.2:6232): CRITICAL **: file bbdb.c: line 155 (bbdb_do_it): assertion `book != NULL' failed ** (evolution-2.2:6232): CRITICAL **: file bbdb.c: line 155 (bbdb_do_it): assertion `book != NULL' failed [/snip] on the console. Perhaps these are related to whatever is causing the henious, multiple addressbook authentication failures on my G/W A/B - I counted 15 repeated dialog: Title: 'Failed to authenticate' Body: "Failed to authenticate.\n Enter password for Novell GroupWise Address Book (user mmeeks)" Cancelling each one serially - and this 15-cascade happening relatively frequently during mail reading/composition ... [ hmm ].
same with bug 271984, bug 271985, bug 306571.
i'd recommend you disable the plugin anyway (particularly because of the multiple warning boxes). the book != null one is a real bug too
I think the multiple warnings are the other famous gw/auth bug :-) so ignore that.
Created attachment 51494 [details] [review] fix + cleanups
reassigning jpr's old evolution\miscellaneous bugs to harish
Will commit it after the 2.11.3 release
Sankar, I see that the patches fail to apply, can you rework and commit Sankar.
Bumping version to a stable release.
If this patch still holds the value, are we planning to commit any time soon ?
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new bug report ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
