After accepting this morning update to Evolution (2.24.1.1-4.13.3), Evolution crashes immediately upon startup.
This is REALLY bad for me, as I use Evolution or all my email.
Upon researching, this seems a known issue posted in the Ubuntu forums a couple of weeks ago. So WHY did this get rolled into the scheduled updates?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix or undo this…??
All I can tell is that it crashes when I have an exchange account in there…it is certainly irritating. Hopefully this gets fixed in the near future.
run it from a konsole… and paste the errors here
Hi Folks,
I have the same problem, evolution crashes on startup. My only account is an exchange account. Gnome console output below:

…sorry, probably should mention I’m running openSUSE 11.1 on X86_64…If anyone needs any more info, please don’t hesitate to ask…Rolling back evolution update now…
I am running 32 bit 11.1.
Things are much worse: even after I roll back the version, I still get the same problem.
Does anyone know which dependent package is causing this problem? Rolling back evolution doesn’t fix the crashing…
Hi:
Same problem than Ubuntu, just after update

I don’t know if this is the real resolution for this problem but for me it solved my issues with starting and crashing of evolution.
After some googling I found an evolution:stable repo. I’ ve added it to my list of repos and updates all evolution packages and the gtkhtml2 packeges.
Index of /repositories/GNOME:/Evolution:/STABLE:/2.24/openSUSE_11.1
The only question I’m stuck with is what will happen if the update repo gets a new “version” of evolution ? 
I would imagine it’s fairly easy to roll over to the OSS repos if/when they get updated.
Good call on using the Evolution stable repo…I’m now able to use my work’s exchange account on my workstation again (I hate the webmail interfaces).
Had exact same problem. Corrected by downgrading evolution-data-server from version 2.24.1.1-5.11.2 from openSUSE-11.1-Update repository to version 2.24.1.1-5.1 from the OpenSUSE 11.1 iso.
Problem solved! I wish I’d thought of this before blowing away my .evolution and .gconf/apps/evolution folders… 
Haven’t tried adding the Evolution “stable” repository mentioned earlier in the thread, however.
Thank you for posting that. It saved me a lot of trouble.
I recently went back to the official repo version. Everything is working fine now. I think a recent DICE update fixed some dependencies.
