As you can reproduce this, could you try to get the backtrace with debug symbols
Yes, very willingly, but shame to say, I need some help with that - see details below.
and possibly try a valgrind,
Done. [cut] Following some of steps here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash , I have done: 1.Installed evolution with debugging symbols, which made me notice I made little mistake about my version of evolution - see below: root esp-patben-amd:~/dev/evolution# apt-cache policy evolution evolution-dbg evolution-data-server evolution-data-server-dbg evolution: Installed: 3.8.2-0ubuntu1~raring1 [...] evolution-dbg: Installed: 3.8.2-0ubuntu1~raring1 [...] evolution-data-server: Installed: 3.8.3-0ubuntu5~ubuntu13.04.2 [...] evolution-data-server-dbg: Installed: 3.8.3-0ubuntu5~ubuntu13.04.2 [...] 2.Run script to determine which additional libraries are needed to debug with newest version of gdb: root esp-patben-amd:~/dev/evolution# ./list-symbols-packages-v2.sh -p $(pidof evolution) ++ basename ./list-symbols-packages-v2.sh + progname=list-symbols-packages-v2.sh + all=false + preferred='dbgsym dbg' + debug=false + terse=false [...cut out tons of output...] + apt-cache search '^zlib1g:amd64-dbg$' + read i libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0-dbg - Javascript engine library for GTK+ libwebkitgtk-3.0-0-dbg - Web content engine library for GTK+ - Debugging symbols root esp-patben-amd:~/dev/evolution# root esp-patben-amd:~/dev/evolution# echo $? 0 3.# apt-get install libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0-dbg libwebkitgtk-3.0-0-dbg (should I load these into gdb somehow, or is it enough to install it?) 4.Followed this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace to get the backtrace. Two first attempts finished with evolution hanging - I had to kill it, two next (attaching to existing process) allowed me to return to gdb, but there was no stack trace. Fifth one was an attempt to unpack ubuntus crash report and load CoreDump to gdb. All in gdb-evolution-N.txt files. 5.Following this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash (which seems to be outdated) I tried to apport-retrace crash report. There was no option to "Examine locally", so I did: root esp-patben-amd:/var/crash# apport-retrace -g _usr_bin_evolution.1000.crash ERROR: report file does not contain one of the required fields: CoreDump DistroRelease Package ExecutablePath root esp-patben-amd:/var/crash# apport-retrace -s _usr_bin_evolution.1000.crash ERROR: report file does not contain one of the required fields: CoreDump DistroRelease Package ExecutablePath ...indeed there is no 'Package' file in crash report file. 6.I have run valgrind with no problems, as directed by Milan - see attachment. As a side note, I tried to move folder two times, but on the first attempt i dropped it between two folder, so there was no action. I had to Drag&Drop it again and aim with mouse cursor to one folder. I still am willing to provide backtrace, but I need some help, as my attempts didn't produced corefile - see attachments for output.
