[Evolution-hackers] Bonobo activation fails in shell/main.c

[Jules Colding <colding omesc com>]

Hi,

I am seeing a weird problem in evolution/shell/main.c line 359 (CVS
HEAD). It dies due to corba_shell being CORBA_OBJECT_NIL. The debugger
(when using breakpoints) shows a different failure path, so I am left
with the backtrace ("thread apply all bt") below:

Thread 1 (Thread 46912604190864 (LWP 6076)):

(gdb) 

BONOBO_ACTIVATION_PATH is correct and this worked a few days ago.

Any ideas?
