Crash on copying multiple big folders

[Kevin Lamontagne]

When copying a folder from an IMAP server to a local folder. It may take some time. Meanwhile, you can still do other actions, like copying other folders. After a couple of simultaneous copies, if you are dragging messages/folders while one of the copy operations completes, you're stuck in drag-n-drop "mode". Can't interact with the desktop anymore.

Evolution 2.4.1 on Breezy

[Martin Bergner (martin-bergner)]

I had this once or twice so far.

[Martin Bergner (martin-bergner)]

Ah sorry, forgot to add, I'm running evolution 2.6.0 in dapper.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks for your bug. Could you switch to a VT when that happens and get a backtrace of the hang?
- gdb -p $(pidof evolution)
(gdb) thread apply all bt

Do you have a description of some simple actions to get that?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Upstream has http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308354 about that

I confirm, it is the description of my bug. Sorry for the dup

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

No problem, we will let you know when upstream fixes the issue

[Vassilis Pandis (pandisv)]

I'm marking this as confirmed since it already existed upstream. If somebody disagrees, please change it.

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

Upstream has just commited the fix, and it should be available on next upload of Evo for Hardy.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the bug should be fixed in hardy, reopen if you still get the issue though
