evolution 2.4.2.1

[iaw]

I am mainly running kde under amd64, but would love to get evolution to work. alas, I am getting weird crashes, and pretty soon after startup. I just upgraded to the latest gnome 2.12, and reemerged evolution, so this ain't it.

$ gdb evolution

...and thereafter the app pretty much freezes. am I the only one with this problem, or is this something fairly familiar?
