Public bug reported:
When I copy a contact from one address book to another, if a similar
contact exists in the target, Evolution tries to merge those contacts.
In upstream Evolution, this is handled with a contact merging dialog. In
Ubuntu, Evolution crashes with the following output:
(evolution:6186): e-web-view.c-WARNING **: Disabling webkit plugin: Gnome Shell
Integration
(evolution:6186): e-web-view.c-WARNING **: Disabling webkit plugin: iTunes

Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading
configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

#This is where I copy a duplicate contact contact
(evolution:6186): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type
`EABContactDisplay'
(evolution:6186): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `result != 0'
failed
** (evolution:6186): ERROR **: eab-contact-duplicate-detected.ui: Invalid type
function on line 90: 'eab_contact_display_get_type'
zsh: trace trap evolution
It is probably worth mentioning that the contact merge dialog uses
Webkit, and that firing SIGTRAP seems a little odd :)
I'm going to list two different ways to reproduce this...
Steps to reproduce A:
1. Create a new address book.
2. From any other address book, select a contact, choose "Copy Contact To," and
choose the new address book.
3. Repeat step 2.
Steps to reproduce B:
1. In any existing address book, create a new contact.
2. In that same address book, create another new contact with the same email
address, or the same name.
These both produce the same crash on two different systems, one running
Ubuntu 12.04 (Evolution 3.4) and one running Ubuntu 12.10 (Evolution
3.6). This does not happen in Fedora 17 or Fedora 18.
