Can you still reproduce this problem or has it been fixed since?
Comment 2 e 2007-01-16 05:47:00 UTC
My distro is from paldo.org (author: my son Jürg...). Evolution crashes all the time on my different PCs and every day. May be its because we use a special sync process between Evo and my Nokia E70 Smartphone via SyncML. Jürg has developed a special program that syncs (calendar, contacts, tasks & notes) in short intervals between local PCs and the (remote) SyncML server over the internet. Sync between server and the E70 is initiated manually from the phone and uses WLAN to the (remote or local) network and from there to the server over internet (or LAN). In the beginning there was a memory-leak problem in Evolution detected and now corrected. We assume that there must exist more internal problem in Evolution which only show up due to this extensive use. Most time the crashes come from the not mail-related parts of Evolution (contacts, calendar, tasks and notes). As a result I have to shut down (sometimes force-shutdown) Evo and restart it. However, I can't remember having lost data. Unfortunately I can't give very precise informations - but if you ask me specific questions, I will try to find answers to them.

hmm, i can't see a single evolution call in the stacktrace. can you also install debug packages for libbonoboui, if possible?

Comment 4 Jürg Billeter 2007-10-22 07:02:56 UTC
These crashes don't happen anymore according to the reporter.
