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: http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces/DistroSpecificInstructions
Unfortunately the stacktrace does not have any hints about the real cause of the crash and does not help in debugging this issue. For some yet unknown reason, such stacktraces are pretty common currently on certain distros. However, almost all of them do turn out to be filed already, once we managed to gather a useful stacktrace. To do so, simply install the corresponding debugging packages and reproduce the issue, if possible. The resulting stacktrace (see bug-buddy details) will help us to identify and fix the issue. Just in case you ever can reproduce this crash later, please consider installing debugging packages [1] and either reopen this bug report or simply file a new one with the resulting stacktrace. Thanks! Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Also, please feel free to report any further bugs you find. Thanks! thanks for taking the time to report this bug; however, closing due to lack of response of the reporter, sorry. if you still see this issue with a current release of evolution (2.4 or later), please reopen. thanks in advance.
