Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

Hi,
I'm using evolution 2.4.1 with Ubuntu 5.10.
By mistake I removed the ~/.evolution* files
  rm -rf ~/.evolution*
When I then insert an appointement in
the calendar, evolution would just open about 100
of error's windows, bringing the Desktop to freeze.

This happends when I closed the calendar after
having written an appointement.

Thanks for your bug. I'm marking as rejected, evolution has many issues to be worked before trying to make it resistant to users playing to run rm -rf on its files while it's running. That's not really a bug, why an user would do that anyway? And if you decide to clean the configuration do it after stopping the program and start it again

Changed in evolution:
assignee: nobody → desktop-bugs
status: Unconfirmed → Rejected
