Evolution crashes when calendar is opened - Dapper

[Mike Perry]

Hi there,
I just installed flight-5 today. I was running through the short test and I am segfaulting with evolution. After I configured evolution for my default account I started clicking around. When I clicked on calendar I immediately crashed. Now everytime I open evolution it defaults to the calendar view and it crashes. I ran gdb and below is the output. I did not recompile evolution, but I can if you really want me to. The reason I did not recompile it, is because this computer is only a P3... compiling may hurt.

Anyway enough rambling. Here is the output of gdb please let me know if you need anything else.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks for your bug. The backtrace indicates that could be a theme issue. Does it happen if you use an another theme? What version of the gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks package is installed on that CD? Could you try updating it and notice if that fixes your issue?

[Dana Olson (adolson)]

I have the exact same issue, and I can confirm that changing my theme to anything but Human works just fine, no crashes.

I have updated just now, and there were no newer updates for the gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks package. My version is 0.9.5-1.

[bhaagensen (bhaagensen)]

I also confirm. Changing to away from the Human theme solves the problem. The debug info is the same as reported above.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

That's a ubuntulooks crasher, can you get a backtrace with a debug version (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebugProgramCrash) of that package installed?

[Tarik Jabri (tjabri)]

I also can confirm this bug. I'm attaching output of the debug. This problem disappears when I switched to the clearlooks theme.

[Tarik Jabri (tjabri)]

Here is the debug from my crash. I also wanted to point out that the grey on the buttons looked "weird" with the ubuntu-looks package (latest as of 12 mar). They looked as if the color was almost pixelated with darker greys in there. I tried to take a screenshot but it didn't show up on the shots.

[Richard Stellingwerff (remenic)]

Fixed in Ubuntulook 0.9.6 at
http://www.stellingwerff.com/ubuntulooks-0.9.6.tar.gz.

Thank you Richard, you really rock :)

New version uploaded:

 ubuntulooks (0.9.6-1) dapper; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream version:
     - tooltip gradient
     - Fixed crasher in evolution calendar

Marking the bug as fixed

[Mike Perry (mike.perry)]

I have just downloaded a slew of dappers updates and this is indeed fixed.
Thanks!

[solefald (pruchai-hotmail)]

iam getting crashes and evolution locks up when using clearlooks theme too

[bhaagensen (bhaagensen)]

solefald, this should be fixed. Make sure you're using gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks version 0.9.6-1

[solefald (pruchai-hotmail)]

sorry, i meant to say that switching to ubuntulooks theme fixed everything, but
with clearlooks Evolution is pretty much unusable.

[Richard Stellingwerff (remenic)]

Clearlooks bugs don't belong here, do they?

I tried Clearlooks 2.6.8 and it works just fine. The unstable version of Clearlooks (2.7.x) crashes evolution, but it's not part of Dapper yet.
