Has just happened to me on 12.04LTS (encrypted home folder) after an extended period of non-use. Bug #822479 refers?
Triggered by trying to move a contact from one address book to another (coincidentally prehaps, to the last address book on the alphabetically sorted list) Reproduced giving a message Ubuntu 12.04LTS has encountered an error - duly reported - twice within the past half hour or so before this report. The error killed Evolution but not the OS. Evolution was reloaded for the second try (from the top panel icon) so: If there is a memory leak it is leaking from the OS (ie when Ubuntu killed the running instance of Evolution it didn't get the memory back) On the other hand it could be Evolution not managing to move the address book entry for some other reason. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/831308 Title: Evolution crash when copy/move contact between address books Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Start evolution -> Create "dummy/any" contact in Personal address-book -> Create "another" address-book -> Copy "dummy" contact from Personal to "another" address-book -> Copy/Move "dummy" contact from "another" to Personal address-book -> Crash Message about duplicate contact expected Instead: e-utils-ERROR **: eab-contact-duplicate-detected.ui: Invalid type function on line 90: 'eab_contact_display_get_type' Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: evolution 3.1.5-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-9.12-generic 3.0.3 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-9-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Mon Aug 22 16:24:18 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha i386 (20110814) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: evolution UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) --- ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu2 Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha i386 (20110814) Package: evolution 3.2.0-0ubuntu2 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.19-generic 3.0.4 Tags: oneiric running-unity Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/831308/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
