Here is the reference to the patches that fixes the issue: https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit/?id=867f50aaae9adafb52bb95410838f91cc386dd5e https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit/?id=aba471941b94ff926930d7586f7567bdfae9fd6c Tested manually on x86_64, ppc64le and aarch64 using evolution-3.22.6-10.el7 I tried to drag one line as well as multiline texts from gedit to an Evolution's "Compose Message" window (in Plain Text and even HTML mode). The described problem did not appear. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.

Created attachment 1270801 [details] attachment_1 Description of problem: When I drag&drop text from gedit(or xchat or even evolution itself or anything else really) to evolution new message composer several times in a row, I am unable to make any more actions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-3.22.6-4.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start evolution. 2. Click on New button. 3. Open gedit, type some word (e.g. 'test'). 4. Select word in gedit. 5. Drag the word over evolution new message composer and drop the word. 6. Repeat steps 4-5. Actual results: It seems as everything freezes and I am unable to control anything via mouse. Expected results: Word is correctly added in message composer. Additional info: At first I thought whole gnome-shell has frozen, but I am able to move mouse, while unable to click on anything, so in attachment_1 is X log with data during the freeze - the idea was that control was taken from mouse and not returned. In attachment_2 there is backtrace of evolution during the freeze. Also I witnessed that when I kill the app that I was dragging from, everything returns to normal and I am able to continue my actions. I do not know if that information has any value, but as I am unable to locate the source of problem, anything can help. I will also be grateful for any tip or guide how to debug this problem.
