Description David Nielsen 2007-02-04 20:37:46 UTC 
Description of problem:
I get a very reproducable crash when reading mail, I'm unsure what the trigger
is but it happens 10-20 times a day here. I've attached the backtrace in the
hope it helps.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.9.5-4.fc7
evolution-data-server-1.9.5-3.fc7
libgnome-2.17.90-1.fc7
libgnomeui-2.17.90-1.fc7
atk-1.13.2-1.fc7
gtk2-2.10.9-3.fc7
glib2-2.12.9-1.fc7

How reproducible:
100%

backtrace of crash
Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2007-02-04 20:48:22 UTC 
Thanks for the bug report.  I've seen several crash reports like this where
accessibility libraries seem to be the cause of the crash.  Turning off
accessibility seems to make Evolution more stable for some users.

Can I ask you to install atk-debuginfo and post another backtrace the next time
you see this crash?
Comment 3 David Nielsen 2007-02-04 21:13:03 UTC 
atk-debuginfo is installed for that backtrace. Could some other debuginfo
package be missing?

Another backtrace of evolution crashing
Comment 5 David Nielsen 2007-02-06 17:20:36 UTC 
great, I noticed glibc-debuginfo was went missing and after installing it
Evolution picks that time to stop crashing after this happening about 10 times
in a row after some eager clicking - if absolutely strictly needed please have
patience as I force Evolution into submission.

Yay.. another backtrace

Yep, the reign of stability ended, this time we have a proper trace of the a11y
crash.

Matt says this might have gotten fixed by alex's patch... Is this still an
issue?  If not we probably should try to get this for FC7.
Comment 8 David Nielsen 2007-04-17 21:51:09 UTC 
Seems to have gone.. let's call this one fixed, thank you Alex
