Don't worry about that bit, but the fact that your bug was marked
RESOLVED DUPLICATE and as a duplicate of #46688, which is a bug for the
Bug Buddy Program, doesn't make sense to me.  It looks like Bug Buddy
worked since it allowed you to submit the bug.  I'm not sure, but this
could be a mistake by Gerardo (the Ximian guy who closed it).  I'm sure
he's got his hands full managing bug reports so just I suggest you
reopen the bug, and in the "Additional comments" section, you point out
that the duplicate doesn't seem to be the same bug.

I also suggest you provide as much information as possible to assist in
debugging.  You specified the GNOME version, but what linux distribution
and version are you using?

In any case, I'd suspect that the problem has to do with some program or
daemon not being started when you boot your system, or perhaps one that
IS being started and conflicts somehow.  Maybe it's some file that's not
being cleaned up until Evolution starts and crashes.  Maybe someone on
the list can give you some ideas of what to check.

I'm assuming this is your bug:
http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=46854

Anyway, good luck.
Eric

P.S. Perhaps the best solution is to never reboot your system.  After
all, this is linux, right?  It's not like it ever crashes ;)
