Title:
Evolution locks up under KDE in Kubuntu 12.04 when setting an alarm on
an appointment
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce the bug:
Fresh install of Kubuntu 12.04 with all current updates (language: german -
no idea if that is important).
Install package evolution.
Start evolution and go through the configuration process setting up your
e-mail account.
Then go to the calendar and create a new appointment (right click in the
calendar -> new appointment). Type in the summary, then go to
options->reminder/alarm (Erinnerung). Choose e. g. 15 minutes before the
beginning and click on close. After that no more inputs in the appointment
dialog are possible, neither mouse nor keyboard. When you click the
window-close button you get the "save changes" dialog, which again does not
accept any input - you can only close it with the window close button which
brings you back to the appointment dialog. No chance to get past the "save
changes?" dialog and thus the appointment dialog cannot be closed in any way.
Closing the evolution main window and then closing the appointment dialog
works, but of course, the appointment data is lost.
Command line reports the following error from evolution when clicking
in the appointment dialog while it is locked up:
(evolution:11015): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_device_grab_remove: assertion
`GDK_IS_DEVICE (device)' failed
Is was able to reproduce this bug on three different computers, 32-bit
AMD desktop, 64-bit Intel desktop and a 64-bit Intel notebook.
When running evolution in a gnome environment on the same computers
(only tested on the 64-bit Intel desktop), the problem does not occur.
So this is certainly something caused by the KDE environment. But
then, the problem was not there in Kubuntu 10.04.
