Thanks for a bug report. Could you install debug info packages for gtkhtml3, evolution-data-server and evolution and update the backtrace with those installed, please? There is a similar upstream bug report [1], but their are asking for the same information. [1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606167
*** Bug 553343 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I'd love to help, but I need a little more detailed step by step guide of what debugging tools to install (and how...)... So if you have a "magic command line" I could copy and paste, that would be nice ;)
Thanks for the update. There is a tool named debuginfo-install, which makes this process easy. Just run $ debuginfo-install gtkhtml3 evolution-data-server evolution and wait until it downloads the debug info packages and installs them. The command should be run as root.
Oops, I'm sorry, I moved it to New status, instead of keeping it in a Closed/Upstream. Fixing it now.
I tried, and I can reproduce something similar as in bug #553343, but composing an html message and selecting two lines of text, like: > aaa > bbb (that "aaa\nbbb") and clicking the link properties button. It's crashing the application, both the 2.28 and 2.29. It has slightly different functions involved than the initial backtrace, but it contains the same gtkhtml_editor_link_properties_description_changed_cb thus I believe it'll be fixed together. I'm moving to the upstream bug now. Thanks you both for reporting this.
