[apport] evolution crashed with SIGSEGV in pthread_mutex_unlock()

Thanks for your bug report.

Thanks for your bug report. Please try to obtain a backtrace http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and attach the file to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

I went to the website but it specifically says it's only for 6.10 and
I'm using 7.04?

Do you still want me to proceed?

Regards,

Silvio

The page starts with comments for 6.10, but there are hints for 7.04, too on the same page. The procedure for 7.04 is the same as for 6.10, only the debug-symbols-packages are on a different location, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash#head-dfec77613a7608500efa364c6f6f55c19bfe8aaa

Hi Sebastian,

I have tried to follow those instructions and add that line but I cannot
save the source list file. It gives me an error.

Also I have tried to open the same file with software sources but the
same program crashes at all times.

While I am at it I have another problem with Evolution. When I try to
open the messages from the inbox they open up blank yet I can read them
from the preview pane.

What do you recommend I do?

Regards,

Silvio

This is the message I get when trying to save that file..

You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check
that you typed the location correctly and try again.

What do I do?

What do you try to do?

I went to the web site you mentioned
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash#head and try to add:

deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ddebs feisty main universe

to /etc/apt/sources.list

Is that correct?

you need to use sudo to edit it

Can you give me the sudo command to open and edit that file?

Sorry I am a total newby

you can use the software sources item in the system, preferences menu, that will be easier

I have opened software sources and all I see in the menu is:

ubuntu software
third-party software
Updates
Authentication
Statitics

So where do I add it?

"third-party software", click on the add button and then copy the line

OK I have figured it out and done it..

no need to add the key

I am lost Sebastien

I am following that site instructions.

OK I have edited the sources.list file

so all I have to do is

sudo apt-get update

Which I have done

What about

4. The debug symbol packages have the '-dbgsym' suffix attached, so to
install the debug symbols for the package 'yelp', you run:

        sudo apt-get install yelp-dbgsym
     a. Now you make a Backtrace.

     b. You can also run Valgrind, if the program crashes with a
        "Segmentation fault" or "Bus error".

     c. Optionally, you may be asked to produce an Strace.

        Do you want to do the above or not?

        How do I keep Evolution updated with all the bug fixes?

        Thanks,

        Silvio

what about attaching the full crash file to the bug rather the light version? that will be easier

We are closing this bug report as it lacks the information, described in the previous comments, we need to investigate the problem further. However, please reopen it if you can give us the missing information and don't hesitate to submit bug reports in the future.

Thanks Sebastien.

One question though..how can I have the latest version of evolution at all times?

I love this email program but sometimes it lacks behind Kmail or even Outlook in some areas.

Any plan to upgrade it at par with the others? I do not use Exchange so such server compatibility is not an issue for me.

Please let me know.

Regards,

Silvio
