if you want to know what broke it, then you should take the time to |
13 |
compile in some debugging symbols (just in evolution and associated |
14 |
libs, not the entire world!) This would have been quicker than |
15 |
rebuilding absolutely everything! |

You obviously have time, as you just did an emerge -e world ;) |
18 |
Unfortunately I don't think you'll be better off blindly fixing it - |
19 |
what if it happens again? What if a similar thing happens to a |
20 |
different package? Just switching mail-clients wont help - any package |
21 |
is potentially open to crashing. Take the time now to find out why, and |
22 |
save yourself time in the future, IMHO :) |

but glad it's working again. |
