The reason I ask is it (Evolution) still crashes, but there aren't any repeatable steps. It crashes at random so maybe if I have it running in GDB maybe I could get a back trace. But it could be days before it crashes, so I'm trying to figure out how to be able to get a back trace of the issue and not fill up my hard drive. I'm on Version 3.46.0-2 in Debian Testing(Bookworm) btw. -- Tim McConnell <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
