Additional info: Downgrading from version 0.6.2-1.fc8 to version 0.6.2-0.6.b2.fc8 'solves' the problem.
Umm .. actually I lied. Downgrading to version 0.6.2-0.6.b2.fc8 doesnt solve the problem. That version used to work though - I was using it 2 weeks ago before the latest updates came through. Perhaps it's a wider Ruby issue?
The reason needs investigating, however would you check if 0.6.2-2.fc8 solves your problem? (Not pushed to testing or stable yet, please download it from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/packages/alexandria/0.6.2/2.fc8/ )
Yep, version 0.6.2-2.fc8 has fixed things. [james@jumbovaio ~]$ alexandria W, [2007-12-31T08:47:58.336154 #3819] WARN -- : time out of range Thanks.
(In reply to comment #3) > Yep, version 0.6.2-2.fc8 has fixed things. Thanks for confirming! I will request to push 0.6.2-2.fc8. Also reported to upstream: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=16728&group_id=205&atid=863
By the way, are you using evolution as mail client? If so, would you tell me the NVR (name-version-release) of evolution. evolution-data-server for information?
