i believe this is the same bug affecting me. here's a clue. evolution crashes when i'm trying to modify an email address of a contact to be the same address as another existing contact in that address book. can you determine if it's the same problem you're having? if so, we've narrowed it down. running from shell here is the error i get. it was the "duplicate" bit that clued me in and my testing shows that the crash occurs only for duplicates as i described.

On validation in the modification panel, evolution would crash (appication closes violently) It happens only on one specific contact = I reopened evolution and was able to modify the same thing on another contact. But the application would crash again if I try to redo the modification on the first contact.
