Hi,
I'm running rawhide on an x86_64 box. After applying yesterdays updates for Evolution and glibc, I'm finding Evolution has stopped working completely.
I start evolution up via either the command line or by selecting the icon, everything is okay and then things go wrong. Evolution starts eating upto 90% of the processor time and refuses to go any further.
From the command line, I've attempted to start it up with and without
plugins. The software hasn't crashed, it's just got itself confused.
Is anyone else seeing this?
rpm -qa evolution glibc evolution-2.7.92-3.fc6 glibc-2.4.90-23 glibc-2.4.90-23

Yes. Same problem here.
I have done some debugging, and there seems to be two (unrelated?) problems. 1) Starting evolution hangs in an endless loop of
mmap(NULL, 68719480832, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory) mmap(NULL, 68719480832, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory) mmap(NULL, 68719480832, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
This comes just after it tries to read any ~/.evolution/mail/local/*.cmeta-file
Deleting all the .cmeta-files will at least let evolution start.
2) After starting up evolution (deleting the .cmeta-files) it is still unusable. It is using 90% cpu, but now there is no apparent reason for the hang. After abount 30 minutes of waiting for any folder to show up, I just had to kill it to be able to use the machine at all.
An strace of the process now onlys shows
poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=27, events=POLLIN}, {fd=19, events=POLLIN}, {fd=23, events=POLLIN}], 7, 12952) = 1 ioctl(4, FIONREAD, [32]) = 0 read(4, "\241 U7z\0\300\2\17\1\0\0\26\1\0\0\254\r\0\0z\0\300\2\0"..., 32) = 32 write(4, "\31\0\v\0M\0\0\0\0\0\30\0! f\0M\0\0\0\17\1\0\0\26\1\0\0"..., 44) = 44 ioctl(4, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 ioctl(4, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=27, events=POLLIN}, {fd=19, events=POLLIN}, {fd=23, events=POLLIN}], 7, 7924) = 1 ioctl(4, FIONREAD, [32]) = 0 read(4, "\241 V7z\0\300\2\17\1\0\0\26\1\0\0\255\r\0\0z\0\300\2\0"..., 32) = 32 write(4, "\31\0\v\0M\0\0\0\0\0\30\0! f\0M\0\0\0\17\1\0\0\26\1\0\0"..., 44) = 44 ioctl(4, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 ioctl(4, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0
With a new poll about every 2 or 3 seconds.
Any bugzilla entry I should add this to?

Has todays rawhide fixed anything? If not, I'll BZ it today and post the number here.

Still the same.

I've included your debugging stuff in the report.
Great, thanks. Added myself to Cc:-list.

Thanks for filing that. It's possible the recent glibc fix for the previous Evolution issue introduced a new one.
