[Evolution] Bug#826576: evolution: Random segfaults (not at startup)

[Mark Poolman]

Package: evolution
Version: 3.12.9~git20141130.241663-1+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


Evolution segfaults after an unpredictable length of time (~10 minutes - several hours)

This has occurred both when idle and (once) when composing an email.

/usr and /home are both nfs mounts.

Examples from kern.log:

Jun  6 12:46:15 mark kernel: [327783.894321] evolution[14281]: segfault at 25 ip 00007f156f2ba8a8 sp 00007fff2736ebc0 error 6 in libglib-2.0.so.0.4200.1[7f156f254000+10c000]

I have not found a way to trigger this behaviour.

Best wishes,

Mark
