Well, I did it. Now I feel like an idiot. Briefly the description
is "Evolution freezes. Start it and watch it crash." If I were a
developer, I'd go right on to something else.
================== The actual bugzilla entry follows ==================
Summary:
Evolution freezes frequently
Description:
Description of problem:
Several times a day evolution freezes, doesn't respond to input or
refresh its window. Generally, if I click on the window decoration to
delete the window, the window manager (gnome) puts up an error box that
evolution is not responding and asking if I want it killed. When I
respond yes and restart evolution it runs fine for a while, then crashes
again after a while. Sometimes no box appears (evolution must be
responding to a message from the window manager, though nothing is
visible on the screen), and in this case evolution has to be killed from
a command window. All of these crashes seem to be quite random: the
evolution window can be visible on hidden (when visible) displaying or
composing mail or doing nothing.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.26.3-1.fc11.x86_64
How reproducible:
Not very.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Evolution
2. Wait for it to freeze
Actual results:
Evolution freezes
Expected results:
Evolution continues to run OK
Additional info:
I know this is not very helpful, but I have been advised to post this
to
the bugzilla, since developers don't follow the evolution mailing list.
