What were you doing when the application crashed? Please look at previous bug. I don't have the number (it's in my e-mail :) This time I ran Evolution from the command line. Here is the output: ted@tres:~$ evolution CalDAV Eplugin starting up ...

What I did is change from "Vertical view" to "Classic View". Same folder as before. I noticed several times that it's mentioning too many open files, which is a bit concerning. ted@tres:~$ lsof | wc -l 5785 ted@tres:~$ lsof | grep evolution | wc -l 754 There aren't any significant apps open besides GNOME, Epiphany and a couple of terminals.

Created attachment 75120 [details] Broken views directory I moved my ~/.evolution/mail/views directory and things seem much happier. I can switch between vertical and classic view. The attached file is the views that were in that directory. I'm guessing one more more were causing the problems.

Note: Possibly the same as bug 354824. However, there's one notable difference in the stacktrace, namely a NULL filename argument in the gal_view_load() call above.

*** Bug 370743 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The added bug 370743 contains a back trace and has attached to it the smallest set of view files that I've had this crash with. It happens constantly. I delete the views folder and it seems to be happy for a little while, but then boom, death to Evo. After it happens once, the whole app is much less stable. The only changes that I did to create the view files that are attached on 370743 is to change the sort to be a date sort. I hope that helps with this bug, it is VERY annoying!
Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 354824 ***
