Comment 6 Milan Crha 2012-06-20 17:29:08 UTC
Thanks for a bug report. Do you have any kind of reproducer for this, please? The backtrace suggest that this is something with gtk3, as there is nothing related to evolution's code in the backtrace, but I cannot tell for sure.

Matthias, do you have any idea on this, please?

Comment 7 Douglas Furlong 2012-06-20 21:26:40 UTC
I wish I could, but unfortunately I do not.

The majority of crashes/instability that I suffer within Evolution is in and around Calendaring.

This could either be;

1) Clicking on the Date/Time at the top of the screen and waiting for the calendar to appear.

2) Receiving a calendar request as an email, and clicking on it to read it (but it crashing before displaying).

3) Reading it and attempting to accept it.

4) Deleting it.

etc etc etc.

Alas, I receive so many of them, I struggle to keep a track record, as it also does not appear to be a consistent crash.

Comment 8 Milan Crha 2012-06-25 09:01:11 UTC
Maybe, if you can reproduce it at least "quite often", then it will worth it to run evolution under valgrind and trying all the calendar related actions you named above. Valgrind can catch memory usage errors (in case we face here any such), and instead of crashing, in certain types of issues, it logs about them. The only disadvantage is that evolution is significantly slower, due to all the memory checking. I'll appreciate if you could run this test, even it'll be time consuming.

Please, make sure you have installed debuginfo packages for gtk3, glib2, gtkhtml3, evolution-data-server, evolution and if you use other evolution-* packages, then for them too, and that they are of the same version as the binary packages (like with: rpm -qa | grep evolution | sort). Then install valgrind, if not installed yet, and run evolution under valgrind like this:
   $ G_SLICE=always-malloc valgrind --num-callers=50 evolution &>log.txt
You can see high CPU usage after you invoke this command, and log.txt file growing. It can take even longer than a minute until evolution's window will be shown, it depends on accounts you have configured, search folders (it's preferred to disable then in Edit->Preferences->Mail Accounts, before you run evolution under valgrind) and other circumstances, like account's automatic update on evolution's start. The resulting log.txt file can contain information about improperly used memory, though it's likely it'll be full of memory issues around 'wcslen' function. This one can be suppressed, for example, with adding below lines into the beginning of /usr/lib64/valgrind/default.supp:
{
   Skip any wcslen calls
   Memcheck:Addr8
   fun:wcslen
}

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-04 00:14:17 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. 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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

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 prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 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 to Fedora 17's end of life.

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.

Comment 10 Fedora End Of Life 2013-08-01 03:43:46 UTC
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 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.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
