GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 451058
crash in Tasks: I was syncing my account...
Last modified: 2007-09-29 00:07:54 UTC
Version: 2.10 What were you doing when the application crashed? I was syncing my accounts. This crash happens very often! Not only when syncing but when trying to view contents of emails and copying/moving them.

Can you reproduce this while running Evolution under gdb? See http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces/Details#gdb-not-yet-running for details how to do this.
Well, in the link you gave me, it says that bugbuddy should be the "easyest way" of doing this. That is bugbuddy's output and it posted it by itself.
It's the easiest way, but it doesn't always work properly - mainly because Bug Buddy calls gdb *after* the crash, which makes it harder to catch certain cases of bugs (like this one). If you can get a trace from gdb directly, this would be more useful.
I get it, Tom. I'm on it right away. It's a little hard to catch, though... I'll get back to you soon.
