crash dump

Description of problem:

In a brand new account on the system, with no ~/.gnome or ~/.evolution directories, when evolution is launches, it crashes.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.24.5-1.fc10 

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create new account on system
2. Log into the account (into gdm)
3. start gnome-terminal
4. type "evolution"
  
Actual results:

=======begin shell output===========
evolution-shell-Message: Killing old version of evolution-data-server...

(evolution:5241): evolution-smime-WARNING **: initializing security library without cert databases.
(evolution:5241): e-data-server-DEBUG: Loaded default categories
addressbook_migrate (0.0.0)
Rspam Plugin enabled

=======end shell output===========

Evolution then crashes and bug-buddy is launched.

Expected results:

Evolution should launch the first-time setup wizard.

Additional info:

See gnome bugbuddy report http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576667

The problem does not occur on an account which already has an established evolution profile.

Comment 1 Matthew Barnes 2009-03-26 14:18:51 UTC
Crash appears to be originating from the evolution-rspam plugin.

Comment 2 Lucian Langa 2009-03-26 14:50:15 UTC
Nik,
is it possible you could provide a crash report with evolution-rspam-debuginfo installed. Use debuginfo-install to install evolution-rspam.
Thank you.

crash dump after evolution-rspam-debuginfo installed using debuginfo-install command

I re-read Lucian's instructions, which requested using debuginfo-install, instead of what I did which was to just yum install the debuginfo package manually.

I've removed the package using yum, then used debuginfo-install to install it. This time it downloaded and installed glibc-debuginfo-2.9-3 as well, so I created this new crashdump.

The dump still seems to be generated by evolution itself though.

Comment 5 Lucian Langa 2009-03-26 15:27:03 UTC
yes but now it contains evolution-rspam symbols.
dumps are ok now.
thank you.
