2.26.0-0ubuntu4 freezes shortly after start (2-3 emails)

[Brian J. Murrell]

Binary package hint: evolution

Jaunty's current evolution, 2.26.0-0ubuntu4, with it's status "frozen" is certainly right. Frozen all the time on my system that is. Very shortly after starting evolution, now that I've been running with this new "test the latest tarball before the release" release, it locks up. I will attach the stack trace of the latest.

I'd suggest either getting a bug fix quickly or rolling back to the crappy version that Jaunty had a few days ago. At least it was not as crappy as what we have now. That's not to say that every release of evolution after 2.22.0 has not been crap. They all have been crap. This particular update is just crappier than normal-crap-evolution.

Oh, I should the latest is this on the terminal for the evolution process:

Here's more, just after restarting after the above mess.

[Brian J. Murrell (brian-interlinx)]

This release is pretty much useless. Read 2-3 messages before it locks up, then have to restart only to have it happen again.
