Description Carl Gherardi 2004-02-19 03:33:11 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6)
Gecko/20040115 Epiphany/1.0.7

Description of problem:
On startup from a terminal evolution generates some GLib errors.

(evolution:3619): GLib-CRITICAL **: file gstrfuncs.c: line 2129
(g_strsplit): assertion `string != NULL' failed

(evolution:3619): GLib-CRITICAL **: file gstrfuncs.c: line 2241
(g_strjoinv): assertion `str_array != NULL' failed

I'm also experiencing multiple crashes a day - will report segfaults
as another bug.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-1.5.3-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start evlution from the terminal
2. Watch errors

Expected Results:  No errors only debug info like:

pipe_to_sa /bin/sh -c spamassassin --version 
test if spamd is running (port -1)
pipe_to_sa spamc -x 
use spamd 1 at port -1
pipe_to_sa spamc -c

Additional info:

Using Fedora 1.90 + updates (Upgraded from Fedora Core 1)

Comment 1 George Karabin 2004-03-05 17:26:51 UTC

This has been fixed by a more recent glib. I've got glib2-2.3.5-1 out
of the development tree, which fixed it for me.

Comment 2 Dave Malcolm 2004-05-17 20:11:20 UTC

This looks like it was an Evolution bug; I can't reproduce this in the
latest build of Evolution (1.5.7), so I'm going to mark this as WORKSFORME
