Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Could you please install some debugging packages [1] and reproduce the crash, if possible?

Once bug-buddy pops up, you can find the stacktrace in the "details", now containing way more information. Please copy that stacktrace and paste it as a comment here.  Thanks!


Also, could you please add a description, what you were doing when the application crashed?


[1] debugging packages for evolution, evolution-data-server and gtkhtml,
    plus debugging packages for some basic GNOME libs. More details can
    be found here:

I've installed the following dbgsym packages and dependencies:

evolution-plugins
 libgmime-2.0-2 
libopensync0 
mail-notification 
mail-notification-evolution 
opensync-plugin-evolution
evolution-data-server-dbgsym 
evolution-dbgsym 
evolution-plugins 
evolution-plugins-dbgsym 
libgmime-2.0-2 
libopensync0
mail-notification 
mail-notification-evolution 
mail-notification-evolution-dbgsym 
opensync-plugin-evolution
opensync-plugin-evolution-dbgsym

At the time of the crash I was viewing an email with two images (jpegs).  I expanded the first to view inline, then hid it again.  I then expanded the second to view inline at which point evolution crashed. 

In attempting to recreate the crash, I followed the same steps 3 times with no crash.  However on completely opening the message (rather than using the preview pane) and using the same view tactics (preview inline, hide, preview second) I managed to cause the crash.

Here's the output:
