While the above fix keeps unity from crashing, the underlying issue with evolution is still present. I can use the reproducer in this bug to freeze evolution and hang the desktop now (ie, I can't click or do anything until evolution is killed). Evolution turns gray, but doesn't die. The CPU is not pegged and nothing is added to .xsession-errors when it happens.
I did notice: * sometimes a single left click on a search result contact will preview it, sometimes hang * double clicking the search result contact will cause a hang * right clicking on a search result contact will cause a hang ** Also affects: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/706941 Title: unity-panel-service crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast() -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
