garrrr!

No garnome upgrade without evolution breakage, not for me… Some progress though, this time around it’s mostly usable instead of crashing right on startup.

Now evolution hangs on showing meeting requests from exchange server. Seems that e-d-s simply crashes leaving evolution blocking on a mutex or futex or something. Running e-d-s in gdb, or attaching gdb to running process provides no additional clues, even gdb gets all confused and fails with internal error. Guess gdb 5.3something is too old, fortunately gdb appears to be trivial to build. Unlike evolution…

Naturally the crash isn’t happening in offline mode, so I need to continue debugging back at the office tomorrow. Hope I’m not missing too many meetings.
