Public bug reported:

Description of the problem:
While editing a contact, I entered a bad date and clicked on another field. An error dialog appeared and after dismissing it I was unable to focus any other text field or click on the OK/Cancel buttons.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start evolution .
2. Press Ctrl-Shift-C to create a new contact.
3. Click on the Personal Information tab.
4. Click on the Birthday field and remove None and replace it with 1/1/2006
5. Click on the Notes: field.

Expected result:
Date to be accepted?

Actual result:
An unnamed error window will appear which says "Invalid Date Value". After clicking OK you will be unable to focus any field in the original contact editor and the OK/Cancel buttons will stop working. If you are really (un)lucky then bug buddy window will appear reporting that evolution has crashed.

Version Information:
(Edgy)
evolution 2.8.1-0ubuntu4

** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
