Comment 1 John Keller 2007-05-21 22:44:40 UTC

Deleting ~/.gconf/apps/evolution and ~/.evolution made it work (there was also a dangling e-d-s process after logging out from Gnome that I killed before logging back in again, which might have made a difference).

In any case, weird that it would crash this badly and consistently...
