Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libgtk2.0-0
This bug started manifesting after upgrade to Karmic alpha.
The problem is that when I open a pull down menu in Evolution, like the
server selector in the Folder->Subscriptions or the Receiving connection
type in the mail account preferences dialog, Evolution immediately
crashes with a segmentation fault. Not all select boxes cause this
crash, I'm not sure what causes one select box to crash the program and
others not but it might be related to width: wide drop downs seem to
cause the crash while narrow ones do not.
I do not think this is a problem in Evolution as I get the same problem
with an Eclipse 3.5 installation in various drop downs (all rather
wide), though I did not manage to reproduce this problem using gtk-
demo's "Combo Boxes" demo (possibly because they are all narrow?).
Currently this is a very serious problem for me as I really need to be
able to open drop-down combo boxes and select content in them. There is
no workaround that I could figure out - opening with a keyboard or even
trying to choose the next entry with the down arrow key immediately
crash the program.
