It doesn't appear to be easily done at all - there appear to be many |
14 |
files that would have to be edited, all in some really messy-looking |
15 |
XML, with alot of values that might not be obvious. However, if you |
16 |
want to try and find everything that is touched by adding a new |
17 |
account, it appears that all the files live under |
18 |
~/.gconf/apps/evolution (and sub-dirs) - but there might be additional |
19 |
locations that I'm not aware of. Sorry. :) |

Have you tried a revdep-rebuild -p -v to see if there is a dependency |
30 |
issue that would be causing the evolution crash? Also, have you tried |
31 |
a re-emerge of evolution and evolution-data-server? Another option |
32 |
would be to emerge the ~x86 evolution (2.4.2.1) - it has been quite a |
33 |
bit more stable for me than previous versions of evolution. |
