What were you doing when the application crashed?

Awesome traces !! Mostly dup of bug 348507
*** Bug 348507 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I just wonder if it depends on the text itself, because here is involved spell checker. Do you have any particular text to paste which causes this? Btw, when talking about pasting, the patch from bug #505819 is there only for few weeks, and I see this is filled against gnome 2.20, thus Evolution 2.13 probably. I could reproduce it with multiple pastes, say 5 or so, it unreffed itself finally and crashed. Is it first paste or you pasted more than once to the same composer? But stacktraces are totally different, thus can be related, but not enough.
Marking as NEEDINFO due to Milans questions. Dear Reporter, could you please answer them? Thanks in advance.
"Marking as NEEDINFO due to Milans questions." My apologies, I thought the questions were internal questions. I copied and pasted the text once and then the crash occurred.
And was it some special text? i.e. with weird characters?
I copied text from the from an e-mail into another, no special characters or wierd characters, just text.
Thanks for the info, unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce it. Do you have any exact steps how to reproduce it? Say key by key or command by command? As I mentioned some possibility of spellchecker, what languages are you using in time of the paste? (Even there is no spell checking in To field at all. As far as I know.) HTML mail or plain text mail? Empty body or some text there? With underlined words? Oh, and can you reproduce it with actual Evolution (2.21.92)? I'm trying with it with no luck, I'm sorry for so many questions.
"Say key by key or command by command?" It was a copy and paste of plain text from one e-mail to a new e-mail with an empty body. Have not had the crash occur any more and there have been a number of upgrades since the crash.
OK, thanks for the info, nice to hear it seems fixed. I asked also David to try to reproduce this, maybe he will have more luck here or confirm fixed state.
In talking to Milan, and based on the original posters comments I think we can close this issue. Milan, please close.
Thanks for the update, David. I'm closing, but feel free to reopen in case you face this again in actual (2.22.x) or any better stable version.
