Other information:
Thanks for the bug report. 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.
hi feza, please do not use "summary" as it is not used anymore. this is a known Debian issue, due to the glib update. Please see bug 336767 and http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2006-April/msg00009.html for more information. A fast workaround is to start Evolution with this env variable set, until fixed packages are available: $ G_SLICE=always-malloc evolution Also, please check that Evo and its friends (evolution, e-d-s, evolution-plugins, libsoup, gtkhtml, etc.) are the latest version available, and do have matching version numbers (including the debian package version).
