Bug Fixes

BZ#1052955

Previously, the option to choose the time format in the Evolution application was not offered for certain languages. As a consequence, the calendar component editor always showed time in the 24-hour format. With this update, the correct time format is displayed based on the selection the user makes in the Edit menu: Preferences, Calendar and Tasks.

BZ#1054772

Prior to this update, newly created local address books were not set correctly. Consequently, address books in the Evolution application could not be deleted, and incorrect data was displayed. With this update, address books can be removed, contacts in separated address books remain visible only in the appropriate address books, and the add, edit, and remove operations no longer cause any inconsistency.

BZ#1054865

Previously, the Evolution application did not always handle adding new attachments correctly. As a consequence, attaching a large file caused the Evolution application to terminate unexpectedly under certain circumstances. A patch has been applied to address this bug, and adding new attachments no longer causes Evolution to crash.

BZ#1070846

Previously, the Evolution application displayed only a general prompt for the Smart Card PIN. As a consequence, the user could be uncertain what PIN to enter. This update improves the prompt, and the user now knows what certificate the requested PIN belongs to.

BZ#1080467

Prior to this update, the Evolution application did not correctly handle calling the "Mark All As Read" function. Consequently, Evolution could become unresponsive until the operation was completely finished. A patch has been provided to fix this problem, and Evolution no longer hangs in the described situation.

BZ#1139166

Previously, an error could occur when displaying a new email notification. As a consequence, the Evolution application did not work correctly under certain circumstances. With this update, the bug has been fixed and email notifications are correctly displayed.
