Bug 11429 – evolution 1.2 contacts don't work

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas Kotowicz 2002-12-01 03:13:01 UTC]

I installed evolution 1.2 a week or two ago. everything worked fine. now
recently I did a gnome-panel update (2.0.11) with the needed updates included. 
now somehow clicking on "contacts" leaves me with the current screen (summary,
email, whatever). 
I already tried to unmerge and reemerge evolution, contacts still won't work.
my settings in make.conf are:
USE="-alsa -arts esd -kde -apm gtk2 dvd"
CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe"

Azarah : can you have a look at this ?

reporter : anything in .gnomerc-errors btw (or in the terminal if you run
evolution from the commandline). And what is the output of 'emerge info' ?

.gnomerc-errors stays untouched. there are also no errors displayed in terminal.
 something else: left-clicking on contacts is (as I mentioned before) possible
but doesn't give me the contacts. but if i do a right mouse button click and
chose "open in new window". I can select from there "contacts" and voil

Got that version of gnome-panel ... contacts working fine ...

You could try ease down on optimisations.

I'm having the same problem. Some Evolution 1.2.1 parts aren't working, I cannot access the 
contacts and sometimes I have some other problems in some other parts. 
 
I'm using "-O2 -march=athlon -pipe" cflags on gcc3.2.1 with latest 2.0.x gnome. 

[Comment 7 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2002-12-22 02:42:35 UTC]

Still works fine this side, with gcc-3.2.1 and gcc-2.95.3.  Run:

  # ldd /usr/bin/evolution-addressbook

and attach.
