Not directly evolution-related, but not having bug-buddy working makes debugging much harder, so I'm mentioning it here anyway:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=285726 Note that the root-cause of the bug-buddy crash is actually libhttp.so in gnome-vfs2 so I assume the bug really affects anything that wants to make an http connection via VFS. Not that I understand any of this. ;-) I can't resist to mention that this bug would have been found trivially if the build-logs on a 64-bit machine were post-processed with my check-implicit-pointer script (attached below for convenience...). --david ------------------- #!/usr/bin/env python # # Copyright (c) 2004 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. # David Mosberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # # Scan standard input for GCC warning messages that are likely to # source of real 64-bit problems.
