Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

Source package where Bug was found is EVOLUTION

1- System Release: Ubuntu 904x64
2- Problematic App: Evolution 2.26.1
3- What was expected to happen: Repeat Options on Appointment Saved upon click the Save Button on the Appointment details window.
4- What happened: Evolution crashes and quits.

Running Evolution from Terminal produces Following OUTPUT:
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Start OUTPUT
a@b:~$ evolution
** (evolution:6011): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution %s
** (evolution:6011): DEBUG: mailto URL program: evolution
** (evolution:6011): DEBUG: EI: SHELL STARTUP

(evolution:6011): calendar-gui-CRITICAL **: simple_recur_to_comp: assertion `GTK_BIN (priv->special)->child != NULL' failed
Fallo de segmentación

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------End OUTPUT

"Fallo de segmentación" == "Segmentation Fault".

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step by Step Proces START
1- Launch Evolution
2- Switch to Calendar View (work week view is default)
3- Click on an hour on a day to add appointment
4- Type appointment text and press return to save changes
5- Double click on appointment to modify paramenters
6- Click on Repeat Preferences to alter repeat appointment instances
7- Select "Repeat+Once+Every Week+Forever"
8- Close/Save the Repeat parameters
9- Save the modified appointment on the Save appointment button
10- Evolution Crashes and QUITS
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step by Step Proces END

Actually does not matter the Repeat parameters. I tried also setting Repeat just for one instance and the result was exactly the same.

Please let me know if need more information regarding this issue.

Best regards and THANK YOU very much.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
