First, to Andrew: sorry, I mistakenly assigned to ubuntu-desktop instead of desktop-bugs. My fault.
Ted, thank you. I understand you took the backtraces at the time you saw it, with *only* the Pidgin plugin enabled. * Unfortunately, the Evo BT is inconclusive -- you did not have the debug symbols loaded for Evo, it seems, and I do not know which thread was shown. No matter that, per the few identifiable frames, I would venture this specific thread was in wait. * The EDS trace suggests this specific thread was trying to acquire a lock, and entered a wait for it. * finally, the Pidgin trace shows what I think is part of the contacts plugin (the library gevolution.so) driving a call to the EDS libraries; this thread is waiting on a response. It is difficult to say what is going on on the Evo and EDS BTs, since a single thread was traced. I will try and install & enable the Pidgin Evolution plugin, and see if I can get a nice set of BTs. But, right now, I am tending to reassing this to Pidgin (or, having time, look upstream for similar bugs): the driver here is Pidgin, not EDS. It may well be a conflict on Evo (with the addressbook) and Pidgin, but I lack Pidgin knowledge to go there; anyway, it *works* when Evo calls on addressbook functions, so... until proved otherwise, it would be Pidgin... I am also retitling this bug. ** Summary changed: - evolution-data-server is unstable, causes hangs in other applications + pidgin evolution plugin, Evolution hang ** Also affects: pidgin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: pidgin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: pidgin (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- pidgin evolution plugin, Evolution hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
