Thanks for a bug report. It looks like some part of the code (or some library Evolution uses) is leaking file descriptors, because the reason for the abort was: Creating pipes for GWakeup: Too many open files The open_fds attachment above shows quite many pipe-s opened, which is most likely the reason. I'm wondering how that could happen. I see in the backtrace that you've enabled lookup for sender's photo, which can be related to it, though I do not recall it using any pipes directly. I'd rather guess it's some message type, which is increasing the opened file descriptors count, like some signed/encrypted message with either S/MIME or GPG, but I've not been able to reproduce this even with those. Could you try to find some way to reliably increase the opened pipes, please? You can check how many are opened with a command like this: $ lsof -p `pidof evolution` | grep -c pipe The command returns 0 for me after viewing various messages. You can count overall opened files with this command: $ lsof -p `pidof evolution` | wc -l I've 417 right now, but I'd rather focus on the pipe-s, because they seem to be it. For the way to find a reproducer, run the first command from a terminal, then use evolution as before and try to remember what you did. After some time run the command again. If the returned value increases, then you most likely found a way to reproduce it. Repeat what you did (like view the messages again or such), and run the first command again, which may increase the descriptors. You can find the offending message with this. It can also depend which account type is involved, which I didn't see from the backtrace. Do you use IMAP, POP3, ...?
This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '29'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 29 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 29 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-11-26. Fedora 29 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
