Package: evolution
Version: 2.30.1.2-2
Severity: important
Tags: sid

In the beginning of this week I updated my system, including updating Evolution to 2.30.
Before updating I run `evolution --force-shutdown', packages were updated without problems,
but after running Evolution I noticed few problems, some of which could be related:

1. Mail folders' settings were missing - in 2.28 I had threaded view without window
showing email content - after update all folders had non-threaded view with email subwindow.

2. I think connected to the above - when reading email and pressing "]" the next email shown
is based on time, not on thread.

3. Tags for emails are duplicated. One set is in polish language (independent of LC_* settings)
and one is localised (depending on LANG shown in appropriate language).

4. When closing email window, Evolution sometimes crashes. From my observations it crashes when
I open one email and then close it. If I open two emails in different windows, and then close
those windows Evolution tends to stay running, at least until I move to another folder.
Then, if I forget to open two emails it crashes again.

Below I attach backtrace of one of such crashes.
