Package: evolution Version: 3.22.6-1+deb9u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? Tried to configure Debian on an Asus netbook with maximum resolution of 800x600 and found that wizard and configuration windows overflowed the screen and couldn't be resized. Researched the problem and discovered the existence of express mode to deal with this case. Found --express option included in the Stretch man page for evolution. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? a) Started a terminal window and entered: evoloution --express b) Tried: evolution --help and evolution --help-all * What was the outcome of this action? a) Exited immediately with message: Failed to initialize gtk+: Unknown option --express b) No --express option or similar listed. * What outcome did you expect instead? Evolution started in a mode which better supported small displays. Additional information. I did manage to configure it by dead reckoning the number of tabs to get to the Next button in the wizards. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages evolution depends on: ii dbus 1.10.26-0+deb9u1 ii evolution-common 3.22.6-1+deb9u1 ii evolution-data-server 3.22.7-1 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii libcamel-1.2-59 3.22.7-1 ii libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 1.8.2-2 ii libecal-1.2-19 3.22.7-1 ii libedataserver-1.2-22 3.22.7-1 ii libevolution 3.22.6-1+deb9u1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.50.3-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.22.11-1 ii libical2 2.0.0-0.5+b1 ii libicu57 57.1-6+deb9u2 ii libnotify4 0.7.7-2 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.56.0-2+deb9u2 ii libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 2.18.6-1~deb9u1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-2.2+deb9u2 ii psmisc 22.21-2.1+b2 Versions of packages evolution recommends: ii bogofilter 1.2.4+dfsg1-9 ii evolution-plugins 3.22.6-1+deb9u1 ii yelp 3.22.0-1 Versions of packages evolution suggests: pn evolution-ews <none> pn evolution-plugins-experimental <none> ii gnupg 2.1.18-8~deb9u2 ii network-manager 1.6.2-3 -- debconf information: evolution/needs_shutdown: evolution/kill_processes:
