After upgrading to evolution-data-server-2.22.2, pidgin seizes to work when you either doubleclick or rightclick onto a contact, when pidgin is compiled with USE="eds". Disabling this USE flag, solves this issue, so there seems to be an issue with the interaction with evolution-data-server. When evolution is running, evolution loses connection to all data-server backend processes and needs to be restarted. I've compiled pidgin with USE="debug" and I will attach the output to this bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge >=evolution-data-server-2.22.2 2. emerge pidgin with USE="eds" 3. run pidgin and double click a contact 4. observe how pidgin freezes Portage 2.1.4.4 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.25-gentoo_dazuko-patch-r7-stable x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.25-gentoo_dazuko-patch-r7-stable x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8100 @ 2.10GHz Timestamp of tree: Tue, 29 Jul 2008 06:45:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p33 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.1.6 dev-lang/python: 2.5.2-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r2 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.23-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/bin/mygenkernel /usr/sbin/run-crons /var/lib/hsqldb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="ccache collision-protect distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer multilib-strict parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict test unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo-mirror/ ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/linux/gentoo/ ftp://gentoo.inode.at/source/" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="en de" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/home/ftp/binpkg/" PORTAGE_COMPRESS="" PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS="--timeout=500" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/layman/alon-barlev /usr/local/portage/layman/sunrise /usr/local/portage/layman/science /usr/local/portage/layman/connectical-contrib /usr/local/portage/layman/synce /usr/local/portage/layman/haskell /usr/local/portage/modified /usr/local/portage/own" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X Xaw3d a52 aac aalib accessibility acl acpi alsa amd64 amr amrnb amrr amrwb apm async audacious audiofile bash-completion berkdb bindist bl bluetooth branding bzip2 cairo cardbus cjk cli cpudetection cracklib crypt css ctype cups dbus dga directfb divx dri dts dvd dvdr dvdread eds encode evo exif expat extensions fam fbcon fbcondecor fbsplash ffmpeg flac foomaticdb force-cgi-redirect fortran ftp gd gdbm gedit gif gimp glade glibc-omitfp glitz gmedia gmp gnutls gphoto2 gs gsm gtk gtkhtml guile hddtemp hdf5 iconv icq icu idn ieee1394 imagemagick imap imlib iproute2 ipw4965 isdnlog jack java javascript jikes jpeg jpeg2k kerberos keyscrub kpathsea laptop latex lcms ldap libcaca libnotify libwww live lm_sensors logrotate loop-aes lzo mad memlimit midi mikmod mime mmx mmxext mng motif mp2 mp3 mp4 mpeg mudflap multilib musepack ncurses nls nntp nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia ogg opengl openmp opensslcrypto pam pch pcmcia pcre pda pdf perl plotutils png posix ppds pppd print python quicktime readline realmedia reflection rtsp ruby rubytests samba sasl sdl server session simplexml slang sndfile soap sockets speex spell spl sse sse2 ssl ssse3 stream suhosin svg swat syslog tcpd tetex tga theora threads tiff truetype unicode usb userlocales v4l v4l2 vcd vim-syntax vim-with-x vorbis wifi winbind wma wmf wmp wxwindows x264 xanim xine xinetd xml xorg xpm xsl xulrunner xv xvid xvmc zlib" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel mpu401" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" CAMERAS="fuji ptp2" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse ps2mouse" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="en de" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS

please provide a stacktrace, if you don't know how to do, please read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml This may involve rebuilding a large set of your packages.
Okay. I've rebuilt a lot of packages (namely, those pidgin, eds and evolution-exchange are linked against) to provide debug information. First of all, the segfault is in evolution-exchange, not eds.

I have reported this upstream as well (cf. URL above). If you decide to mark this upstream, this is fine to me since I can either disable the plugin or authenticate via evolution.

evolution-exchange-2.22.3 segfaults as well.

Other than that I haven't seen anything obvious in the backtrace (misses a few symbols btw) so you might want to open a bug upstream (gnome upstream I'd say).
(In reply to comment #13) > which version of evolution / evolution-data-server did you try to compile it > against ? I tried 2.22.2. But this version is missing headers evolution-exchange-2.22.3 is relying on, so I suggest to raise the DEPENDS. > Other than that I haven't seen anything obvious in the backtrace > (misses a few symbols btw) so you might want to open a bug upstream (gnome > upstream I'd say). Already did, cf. comment #8. URL is http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=545517
Upstream provided a patch that solves this issue (see new upstream URL http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473924) I just had to remove the changes from ChangeLog since the diff was made against svn trunk, I guess. I will attach the patch as well a diff to the ebuild.
Created attachment 162260 [details, diff] Patch to prevent evolution-exchange to crash
Created attachment 162264 [details] Modified ebuild diff Takes into account that evolution-exchange-2.22.3 requires evolution-data-server-2.22.3 as well (see comment 11).
patch has been commited, thanks for providing one.
