Comment 1 Akhil Laddha 2007-11-22 06:06:01 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:

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but the maintainers need more information to fix the bug. Could you please answer the questions in the other report in order to help the developers?
