RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Thanks for a bug report. This should fix the issue (even I'm not able to reproduce it myself, somehow). I built a test package witht he fix included at:

https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=8194993

Give it a try and let me know whether it worked. Thanks in advance. Please do not forget to logout and log in after installing it, to make sure that the new binaries will be loaded.

Comment 2 Siteshwar Vashisht 2014-11-05 10:53:08 UTC
I am able to reproduce this issue by following below steps :

1. Setup a vanilla RHEL 6.5 system.
2. Install evolution-exchange package.
3. Do 'yum update' and update to latest version of all the packages.
4. Start evolution in terminal and observe the error message printed in terminal.

This issue is not reproducible on vanilla RHEL 6.6 system however.

The problem seems to be somewhere else. Why updated machine has a problem, while vanila not is a question, but otherwise the reason might be that the external global variable is defined in a library against which the module doesn't link explicitely. This patch does exactly that.
