I do not know if it is because of the above crash, but later I wished to contact a firm and the website apparently sent a request to the default email client. No doubt when I tried-out Evolution the other day, it made itself default. I must change that... Anyway, it brought up an Evolution window for email composing. Since that contained information that I needed to write the email myself at the aol site, I tried to cut-and-paste the address into my browser searchbar (just somewhere to put it - I've often found it a useful place to stuff things I will need sooner or later, when I don't have an editor/wordprocessor up. But I digress...), but cut-and-paste did not function, so I had to write the address down by hand. (Bug? I don't know. In my opinion, everywhere there exists text that is text, it should be "cut-and-paste"able.) Anyway, Evolution put up a window saying it wanted a password to unlock some keyring or other. I did not want Evolution to do anything with anything, so I said "Deny". It went away, and came back. Repeatedly. I got rid of the compose window (I don't know if it was "cancel" or "close window") The password window kept coming back, and I kept denying it. Finally, I had to put up a terminal, type "htop", and search for processes having to do with Evolution. I was surprised to find that there was still a process with details about the email-compose window. I selected it, hit F9, and selected SIGKILL. I think that did it. So far, no more password window. The above terminal process was not as quick as it looks, as the password window kept coming back and eating keystrokes intended for htop or terminal, and trying to make a password from them.
If I was unlikely to use Evolution before this incident, guess what the odds are now...? Any more issues, and I will remove the package (after dealing with my poor captive emails, of course...) This may or may not be a separate bug from the one that crashed E-data- server. I have no idea. It is reasonable to suppose that the crash caused problems. -- evolution-data-server-2.28 crashed with SIGSEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/594527 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
