See http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/bugging.html and pay attention to
the section about backtraces.

| ------- Comment #1 from Andre Klapper  2008-01-06 10:38 UTC -------
| Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
| Unfortunately, the stack trace is missing some elements that will help
a lot to
| solve the problem, so it will be hard for the developers to fix that
crash.
|
| Could you please help fixing this by installing some debugging
packages [1],
| start the application as normal, and try to reproduce the crash, if
possible?
|
| Once bug-buddy pops up, you can find the stacktrace in the 'Details', now
| containing way more information. Please copy that stacktrace and paste
it as a
| comment here. Thanks in advance!
|
| [1] Please install debug packages for evolution, evolution-data-server,
| gtkhtml, gtk, glib, gnome-vfs, pango, libgnome and libgnomeui (as far
as those
| packages are provided by your distribution).
