Description Tor Andre Myrvoll 2003-08-05 05:35:25 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703

Description of problem:
Printing an email inevitably leads to a segmentation fault. Sometimes choosing
print in the File menu is enough, sometimes I actually get the printing dialog
and the file will be printed, but Evolution will always crash.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-1.4.3-3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Evolution
2. Choose an Email
3. Choose File->Print
    

Actual Results:  Depends. Sometimes Evolution immediately segfault, sometimes it
segfaults after printing.

Expected Results:  My mail should be printed without any segfaults.

Can you attach the backtrace from bug buddy?

Do you still see this with test2?

Comment 4 Dave Malcolm 2004-11-30 05:33:18 UTC
Are you still able to reproduce this bug?  Have you tried with a more
recent version of Evolution (for example, 2.0.2 is in Fedora Core 3).
 Otherwise, I'll probably close this as WORKSFORME

Bugbuddy output

I have reproduced this bug with evolution-2.2.2-11.fc5. 

Steps to reproduce are quite similar> 
Open an email in new window
Select print and close the email window right away
Email prints out but Evolution dies 

The bugbuddy output doesn't seem very useful to me so I'll try to gather more
info as soon as possible.

Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. If you are still running
Red Hat Linux, you are strongly advised to upgrade to a current Fedora Core
release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable. Some information on which
option may be right for you is available at
http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/.

Red Hat apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We do want to
make sure that no important bugs slip through the cracks. Please check if this
issue is still present in a current Fedora Core release. If so, please change
the product and version to match, and check the box indicating that the
requested information has been provided. Note that any bug still open against
Red Hat Linux by the end of 2006 will be closed as 'CANTFIX'. Thanks again for
your help.
