[Evolution] evolution crashing randomly

2009-02-27 Thread Tom H 
Hi,

over the last few days, evolution has taken to crashing - the app just
disappears a few seconds after start-up. This seems to be triggered by
events like clicking on emails or moving mails about, and doesn't seem
to be specific to a particular problem email.

If I start with the debug flag, it still crashes no interesting errors
are recorded;
evolution-shell-Message: Killing old version of
evolution-data-server...

I was wondering whether I can get some tips on getting a debug log or
core dump for a bug report, there doesn't seem to be a evolution-debug
package in the fedora 10 repos, and the --debug option is not revealing
much.

[Evolution] writing plugins in python?

2009-02-08 Thread Tom H 

Hi Evolution collective,

I read somewhere that it was possible to write evolution plugins in
python, but googling returns nothing, and the documentation seems to
suggest otherwise/only shared libs and mono.

So assuming that I am going to have to try to do it by creating an .so
file, is there a skeleton example for creating plugins?

Thanks

Tom
