I didn't feel like rebuilding as well, but since mail-notification is small but extremely useful piece of software and there's really no substitute, I started to rebuild my system on Sunday, over 1000 packages. Let us know if rebuilding evolution, gnome-panel and gnome-applets did the magic, but personally I doubt.

I confirm your personal doubts. i.e. rebuilding gnome-panel, gnome-applets, evolution and mail-notification did NOT do the trick.
I agree, this is a useful app. I have a couple of mail accounts and in one area tells me the status of all of them. i have a number of apps on my gnome-panel and some of them i haven't used in weeks. but that mail-notification, very handy. |

I did emerge -eb world and everything seems to be ok, and my system was in need of emerge -e world anyway, cause I've never done it since I installed gentoo about 4 years ago.
Anyway, on another system I take care of and which has almost the same configuration, a simple emerge -ekN mail-notification fixed the things, and I used the binary repository built on the first system during emerge -eb world.
So the conclusion is that you don't really need to do a full emerge -e world, emerge -e mail-notification should be sufficient.
I don't feel like trying to check out which package exactly caused mail-notification's segfaults, but I'd like to know if someone manages to figure it out anyway.
Cheers,
J. |

Try cleanining ccache's cache and doing emerge -e mail-notification, should help.

I just upgraded to gnome 2.20 and, of course, a number of things got upgraded (pango, libwnck etc) and the mail-notification problem is gone now.
yay!!!
so and emerge -v gnome did the trick. |
