Bug 251060 – mail-client/evolution-2.24.2-r1 breaks gnome-extra/evolution-exchange

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Derek Dolney 2008-12-15 20:40:04 UTC]

The evolution-2.24.2-mail-config-crash-fix.patch breaks sending mail with evolution via an exchange server. You get a glibc double free crash.

There are a couple of patches to fix memory leaks that came later on the original bug report for patch evolution-2.24.2-mail-config-crash-fix.patch (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552583). These fix the issue for me.

I'll attach an updated, all-inclusive patch...

Derek, thanks for the patch. I see an extra camel_url_free(url) towards the end of your patch that is neither in trunk nor in the 2.24 branch. Is this required?

Those two camel_url_free(url) calls are part of the last patch posted to the GNOME bugreport. I think they just plug memory leaks.

I suspect my glibc free crash was fixed by the other patch that changed a camel_url_free(url) to camel_url_free(account_url).

Fixed in CVS. Thanks for the patch, Derek.
