I'm running evolution-2.2.1.1 and an unmasked GNOME-2.10. While my GNOME session is being started, evolution-alarm-notify crashes. Unlike other crash dialogs, the one that pops up here ("evolution-alarm-notify has quit unexpectedly....") doesn't have a button to restart the application. I can't reproduce the crash, however. Starting evolution works fine and ps shows an (automatically restarted?) evolution-alarm-notify: 11011 ?

This works for me, is it still a problem with the latest version of evolution in portage?
No, I haven't had this problem for a while. So it might have "solved itself" :-)
please upgrade to evolution-2.6 ( just marked stable with GNOME 2.14 ) and re-open the bug if you can still reproduce it.
