Last night Evolution was working fine, this morning, without having changed 
anything, it crashes with a sefault if I try to use the button at the bottom of 
the sidebar to switch to the calendar. (Ubuntu 8.10 AMD64, Evolution 2.24.1).
Experimentation has shown me that I can invoke the program to open directly 
into the calendar by double clicking on a date in the drop down from the clock 
applet. Then it will behave as normal, during that session. 
If I then shut the program down in any view other than the calendar, it will 
segfault when I try to click from any other view, mail, memos, etc, to Calendar.
If I shutdown with in the calendar view, the program runs fine next time.
There is no record of the event in /var/crash, and I am not tech enough to know 
how to trace what's going on.
Using a terminal to start Evolution doesn't tell me much, as per the attachment.
At least I have a workaround, so it's only a minor annoyance.
Regards,
Bruce
