Description Elijah Newren 2006-01-26 04:33:38 UTC

After launch I saw the little "this is an unstable version of Evolution
just for testing purposes; we suggest Evolution-2.4.2.1 for non-testers"
warning or whatever it said exactly, clicked on the "don't tell me
again" button, then clicked okay, and about a second later before any
other window came up I got this crash.  (This is cut & pasted from a "message denied" email received due to I'm guessing a bad sendmail setup but in any event generated it was originally created by bug-buddy; should hopefully still be intact...).

I suspect this is the same issue, isn't it?

luca: yes, it's the same issue.
quoting vincent from bug 331614: "It seems it only happens if there's no evolution configuration."

targetting to 2.5.

It could be true. I experienced the crash using a newly created account for testing.

after reading the stacktrace i am pretty sure that this is a duplicate of bug 333234 which has been already fixed. see attached patch at bug 333234.
