[arch-general] Evolution 3.12.7 segmentation fault

[Ralf Mardorf]

Hi,

after upgrading Evolution, it doesn’t work anymore. Downgrading to the  
version that did work before, doesn’t solve the issue.
I didn’t install the evolution plugins that seem to replace bogofilter and  
spamassassin.
Unfortunately I didn’t find out, how to display the coredumps.
For further information please take a look at [1].

How can I make 3.12.5 working again, without restoring my complete Arch  
Linux install from a backup?

Regards,
Ralf
