crash in account_changed ()

trace looks like bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560188 which is known upstream, linking the report, thanks.

I'm seeing exactly the same crash on two machines after upgrading to evolution from 2.24.1-0ubuntu1 to 2.24.2-0ubuntu1.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552583 has a patch

Have this problem, too. Seems to be fixed in upstream (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560188). Will there be an Ubuntu update for this?

I have the same problem (two accounts, editing one by adding a PGP key to it caused evolution to crash when clicking OK, restarting revealed the changes had been made but setting it back to the previous setting results in a crash regardless).

I also just experienced this bug, on a new GMail IMAP account I set up. Tried to go in and configure the "IMAP Headers" to "Fetch all headers". Upon clicking OK, evolution crashes-- very reproducible.

I've also generated a backtrace, which I'll attach here. This is on Ubuntu Intrepid x64, using latest Evolution from repositories.

the bug has been fixed upstream now

Will the upstream fix apply to Intrepid or only to Jaunty?

Normally the upstream fix would only go into Jaunty, unless someone specifically backports it to Intrepid.

Setting up Evolution after a clean install without this patch is pretty much impossible... so someone backport it, please.

Seems a bug with wide effects. Following the comments in:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552583

... it's hard to understand what are they patching :(

I see this in Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid also - surely this is a big enough issue to be backported to Intrepid rather than have to wait until Jaunty?

the issue will be fixed in intrepid when the next tarballs are rolled which is next week

Nice one - thanks for the update

you need to enable intrepid-proposed as explained by Steve Langasek

I also had this issue on a freshly installed laptop running Intrepid. Enabling intrepid-proposed and only installing evolution (and its updated dependencies, of course) seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks, Sebastien and Steve!

To Whomever it may concern - This fix has made my day. Thank you. -

It has taken me about five years to migrate from DOS,OS/2,Windows to
Linux. With the evolution of Ubuntu, OpenOffice, Evolution and GnuCash
this year
I disconnected my windows box. Still may need it to disinfect customers
and friends drives, but Linux is all that I need.

Thank you again

The fixed version in intrepid-proposed works great for me too. Thanks for the work!

This bug was fixed in the package evolution - 2.24.3-0ubuntu1
