[Evolution] All settings not being backed up
[Evolution 3.28.1, Mint-19-XFCE] When I restored my previous backup (same Evolution version, different OS; I used the Backup option from the File menu), it looks like none of my folder archive settings made it.

Yes, sorry about that. I had to use gmail inside a browser and it defaults to HTML.

It might be hard to get to the function when the debug symbols are missing. This symbol is from gtk+. Once you have them, the commands might be: $ export GDK_SYNCHRONIZE=1 $ gdb evolution --ex "b gdk_x_error" --ex r --ex "bt" --ex "t a a bt" --ex q where you'll be asked to confirm that you want to make the breakpoint pending (there's some switch for it too, but I do not recall it). Thus just answer 'y', when you'll be asked for something by gdb.

Re: [Evolution] evolution client crashing at startup
Hi Milan: When running from the console, got this: jserink@jserinki7 ~ $ evolution (evolution:28496): Gdk-WARNING **: 16:09:13.347: Native Windows wider or taller than 32767 pixels are not supported (evolution:28496): Gdk-ERROR **: 16:09:13.663: The program 'evolution' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 2273 error_code 11 request_code 53 (core protocol) minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Trace/breakpoint trap Rebuilding with debug info now.

Hi, could you make sure you build with debug symbols (or install debug info packages) and then get the backtrace of the crash, please? That would be like this: $ gdb evolution --ex r --ex "t a a bt" --ex q This should show where the crash happened and eventually also why, because there can also be a runtime warning on the console of evolution, which is not logged in the journal.
