Does it print any other messages?

If you run it with "G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all gnome-calendar", does *that*
print any messages? (You might need to edit the output to avoid
private information appearing: please make it obvious where you have
done so, for example replacing email addresses with XXX at XXX.)

Does anything appear in the systemd journal when you run it? You should
get at least one line in the journal mentioning the segmentation fault
itself; you might also get relevant log messages from components like
evolution-data-server. (Again, you might need to edit out private
information: please make it obvious where you have done so.)

Please install debug symbols and try to get a backtrace that would indicate
to developers what is crashing and why: see
https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace for more information.

> Severity: critical

No, one program crashing does not make your entire operating system
unusable, and is not a root security vulnerability.

I can't reproduce this crash myself, so it seems gnome-calendar is not
entirely unusable for everyone.
