[Bug 904314] Re: Evolution crashes with segfault on viewing certain mails

 

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.

Title:
  Evolution crashes with segfault on viewing certain mails

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi there,

  I'm running 64bit Ubuntu 11.10 Kernel 3.0.0-13 and Evolution evolution:
    Installiert: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1
    Kandidat:    3.2.1-0ubuntu1
    Versionstabelle:
   *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://at.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       3.2.0-0ubuntu2 0
          500 http://at.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages

  The installation is only a few days old (complete an new) and I've set
  up Evolution as my mail program. Using gmail, google contacts and
  google calender, it is just the app of choice.

  When I try to view certain emails in evolution (of my gmail account), Evolution just crashes with a segmentation fault (Speicherzugriffsfehler).
  dmesg says:
  [ 2644.539233] evolution[5546]: segfault at 30 ip 00007f003cf1a368 sp 00007f002f0eb780 error 4 in libevolution-mail.so.0.0.0[7f003ce9f000+ca000]

  This seems to be linked to viewing certain mails of certain senders. I
  can access most mails, but it seems that of a few senders I can only
  see a few wheras most mails of these senders trigger the crash. It
  seems that they have in common that they use e-mail certificates
  (signed e-mails), but I can not 100% confirm this.

  I think since the update to mbox, I might have that problem but I'm
  not sure.

  Any help appreciated. It's my first bug report, so please be patient
  with me... :-)

  Cheers

  Helge
