Backtrace, Dissassembly
Thanks for a bug report. This seems to be an upstream bug [1], which was fixed by a commit [2], thus a patch exists for it. [1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597082 [2] http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit?id=b76e7f143 Here [1] is a test package. I'm not sure if it's not in too much hurry, (I know I asked for a devel ack just recently, but I didn't plan to change my mind). It would be good to have the package tested, as the crash depends on actual data being migrated (even after the backup restore), and there is too little time to achieve that, I'm afraid. [1] https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=3268541 Testing this should just be a matter of setting up some kind of IMAP account on RHEL 5, letting Evolution download summary info for your mail folders so it has data to migrate, and then upgrading to RHEL 6 and running Evolution. If you have a Zimbra IMAP account with a fair amount of content, that should work. The crash is due to thread-safety issues in the migration dialog's progress bar, so the mail content itself shouldn't matter. Just so there's enough stuff there to migrate that you can watch the progress bar make progress. Crash happens in evolution-2.28.3-23.el6 when "Migrating folders" window appears. In old package evolution-2.28.3-22.el6 after crash happened during migration, evolution started successfully and settings were migrated. With new package crash happens all the time, evolution won't start after crash during migration. Created attachment 495278 [details]
abrt.log
abrt.log with backtrace.
I see what's going on. The idle callback update_states_in_main_thread() is running the main loop before returning, but the idle source is still registered with the main loop, so the callback is being called recursively and freeing the same memory over and over until it crashes. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-0714.html |
