Comment 1 Matthew Barnes 2006-05-24 20:20:11 UTC 
I was able to reproduce this on an x86_64 machine, but not on a i386.  Both
machines were running evolution-2.7.2.1 and evolution-data-server-1.7.2.  Will
investigate further.
Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2006-09-18 18:06:32 UTC 
I can no longer reproduce this at all with evolution-2.8.0 and
evolution-data-server-1.8.0.

David, are you still seeing this problem?
Comment 3 David Nielsen 2006-09-18 19:30:12 UTC 
I am indeed still seeing a crash while doing a search in the task context. What
information do you require my good sir and I shall provide
Comment 4 Matthew Barnes 2006-09-18 19:44:04 UTC 
A backtrace for evolution-data-server would be very helpful.  My access to a
64-bit machine is pretty limited at the moment.  TIA.

Probably easiest to attach GDB to a running session:
$ gdb --pid `/sbin/pidof evolution-data-server-1.8`

backtrace of unwelcome crash

I'm unsure if this is indeed the crash we want because now it crashes when I
switch to the task view rather than search and my tasks are all gone. I did a
evolution --force-shutdown to ensure a clean restart and the same thing
happened.
Comment 6 Matthew Barnes 2006-09-21 19:13:50 UTC 
It doesn't look like the backtrace is showing a crash.  All three threads are
stuck in __GI___poll().  Did the attachment get clipped somehow?

new backtrace

Maybe, I recaptured the crash with bug-buddy in the hope that this time the
backtrace might be useful.
Comment 8 David Nielsen 2007-06-06 17:12:36 UTC 
This one seems to have gone away.
