This is a repost of a message I put on netbsd-users last Nov. I am
finding the identical problem now with the new pkgsrc evolution,
2.0.3:

---snip---

Evolution from pkgsrc (evolution-2.0.2nb4) crashes on this fairly
"-current" system:

$ uname -mrs
NetBSD 2.99.10 i386

The crash occurs whenever, in the process of preparing an out-going
mail, any of the 'To:', 'Cc:' or 'Bcc' buttons that call up the
addressbook are clicked. Interestingly enough, clicking on the
'Contacts' button brings up the addressbook quite nicely.

Starting evolution-2.0 from a command prompt, and reproducing this
crash, produces this output:

(evolution-2.0:18419): widgets-WARNING **: Could not open converter

Thoughts, anyone?

because I have a pet halibut?
