Bug#415491: nautilus-sendto crahes immediately after starting

first, sorry that it took so long to respond. I almost forgot that issue
and due to a misconfiguration of evolution (me is at fault here too) it
filtered the bugreport mails "out of my eyes" and I acually forgot the
issue, other more important things took my attention. I was just
re-remembered as I saw yesterday nautilus-sendto was upgraded and found
the mails again, sorry for that.

So I did what you suggested (even now with the new version) and it did
crash again:

$ LC_ALL=C nautilus-sendto /dev/null
Init evolution plugin
Init gaim plugin
Init sylpheed-claws plugin
Init gajim plugin

** (nautilus-sendto:6357): WARNING **: Unable to open addressbook:
EBookStatus returned 3

(nautilus-sendto:6357): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a
previous GError or uninitialized memory.
This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL
before it's set.
The overwriting error message was: e_book_new: no factories available
for uri `scalix://Michael%20Schmitt@thebe.tcw.local/Kontakte'
Speicherzugriffsfehler

I don't know why the last word was not affected by LC_ALL but... it just
means segmentation fault.
As I once had tested scalix (groupware foo) with Evolution but purged it
already months ago, there were some "things" left in my ~/.evolution/
directory:

mschmitt at elara:~$ mv .evolution/scalix/ .evolution/scalix.bak
mschmitt at elara:~$ evolution --force-shutdown

Evolution restart and no crash with nautilus-sendto. As it was so easily
to understand what may have caused the bug even without the debugging
package, I did not try the debugging version you kindly shiped with in
your last mail. Even if it is clear what "caused" the bug, I'd still
call it a bug somehow. But as the scalix thingy was not debian-official
packaged... no idea what to think there. Anyhow, finally solved, just
almost a month past due :)

Thanks for your input!

greets
Michael
