        Hi,
please install debug info packages for evolution, evolution-data-server
and gtkhtml3. Then make it autocomplete some contact and run on the
console:
   $ ps -A | grep evo
which will show you process IDs (PID) for running evolution processes.
I would be interested in two of them, evolution and
evolution-data-server.
Get the actual state of those two processes by these commands:
   $ gdb --batch --ex "t a a bt" -pid=EDS_PID &>eds-bt.txt
   $ gdb --batch --ex "t a a bt" -pid=EVO_PID &>evo-bt.txt

Without debug info packages installed the resulting files will be with
many "??" entries, which they shouldn't be. Also make sure you'll not
post any private information, like passwords, server names and such.
These can be included in the above files.

There seems to be a similar bug report already,
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=567956
I guess you can use that for the investigation.
        Thanks and bye,
        Milan
