Unknown version 2.6.3 in product Evolution.  Setting version to "2.6.x".

Comment 1 André Klapper 2006-11-30 01:29:22 UTC

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!


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

Comment 2 neil 2006-11-30 13:46:39 UTC

Details as requested here.
I hope this is what is required.
