vcard import into ldap -- freeze

[Yonas]

Binary package hint: evolution

Importing a vcard file into an LDAP address book will freeze evolution.

vcard from Gmail. LDAP server works in Evolution.

Debugging didn't show anything about the import process (CAMEL_DEBUG=all evolution >& evo.log)

----------
Evolution 2.26.1
OpenLDAP 2.4.15
Ubuntu Jaunty - Linux yonas-laptop 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

Hi Sebastien,

I can't use those instructions because the evolution doesn't crash, it freezes and CPU goes to 100%.

Program terminated with signal SIGKILL, Killed.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb) backtrace full
No stack.
(gdb) info registers
The program has no registers now.
(gdb) thread apply all backtrace
No registers.

you can use that on a running software to give an indication of what it's doing

I've attached the gdb output, using the "Already running programs" section at

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace

although I couldn't find any helpful info in the output.

Actually, the last few lines of (CAMEL_DEBUG=all evolution >& evo.log) show:

(evolution:9453): libebook-WARNING **: invalid escape, passing it through

(evolution:9453): libebook-WARNING **: invalid escape, passing it through

(evolution:9453): libebook-WARNING **: invalid escape, passing it through

and two or three contacts will successfully show up in LDAP.

Changing to new, the ubuntu team doesn't have the ressources to work on this specific issue but it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug the to the people writting the software (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME)

I'm also reporting this bug on bugzilla.gnome.org:
