[Bug 1570110] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV, while pasting from clipboard

 

I can't get it to add Wily, but I'm on Xubuntu Wily and I have the same
problem. Great that it's been fixed in Xenial, but I need it backported
:(

** Also affects: wily (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** No longer affects: wily (Ubuntu)

** No longer affects: wily (Ubuntu Trusty)

** No longer affects: wily (Ubuntu Xenial)

  * Impact
  some webkitgtk consumers like the evolution composer hit segfault issues

  * Test case

  - Enter anything into 'Subject"
  - Go to any webpage, and highlight a few lines

  * Regression potential
  it's a webkit update so could impact other clients of the library, check that the html rendering in those

  Guys,

   Evolution on Xenial crashes most of times that I want to copy and
  paste stuff into Mail composer window.

   From what I'm seeing, if the stuff inside of the clipboard is
  formatted, with big fonts, tables, etc, it crashes.

   The workaround is to use "Diodon" to paste into Evolution without any
  formatting, or, to open an vim session on Terminal, paste into it
  first, then, copy it again from vim, and paste into Evolution, this
  way, it doesn't crash.

   Looks very easy to reproduce!

  Cheers!
  Thiago
