RE: [Evolution] Evolution crashes when attempting to saveattachment

["Romain" <mr-smoke spinning-plates eu org>]

Sure thing, but when should I kill evolution ?
Because I just made another try, and it took me 10 minutes to manage to kill
the process, woth only intermittent access to console due to high CPU load
obviously.
And I tried this : strace evolution, make the crash happen, Ctrl+C from the
console that lauched evolution, and the crash keeps propagating, ie
evolution-mail occurences stay alive and slows down the whole PC.
Will try the debug asap, but since it's RPM dunno if it was compiled with
debug ...

Thanks
