Description Need Real Name 2006-07-25 10:46:04 UTC 
Evolution keeps crashing.

CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 tells me it's trying to allocate a gig of ram:
 GLib-ERROR **: gmem.c:172: failed to allocate 1073741824 bytes
Comment 1 Matthew Barnes 2006-07-25 10:55:47 UTC 
This isn't nearly enough information to do anything about.

Please at least provide the version of Evolution you're using, steps to
reproduce, and if possible a backtrace at the point of failure.
Comment 2 Need Real Name 2006-07-25 13:23:18 UTC 
I'm trying, but the stack trace is useless, even though I have debuginfo
packages installed.

Next time it happens, I'll post it.
evolution-2.6.2-1.fc5.5
Comment 3 Need Real Name 2006-07-26 11:23:21 UTC 
I get a different crash now, let me know if you want a new bug:
 camel-exchange-provider-ERROR **: file camel-stub.c: line 463
(stub_send_internal): should not be reached

The error, and crash, is triggered when I view a particular message with an
attachment.

Comment 5 Matthew Barnes 2006-07-26 12:28:31 UTC 
Can you provide a sample mail message with attachment that reproduces the problem?
Comment 6 Need Real Name 2006-09-01 22:42:40 UTC 
Not any more. The problem has disappeared.
btw why do I get two NEEDINFO requests instead of one?
Comment 7 Matthew Barnes 2006-09-03 13:40:21 UTC 
Okay, I'll assume whatever problem you were seeing has been fixed and close this
bug.  Feel free to re-open it if you start getting the same crashes again.
