Crash when launching nautilus-sendto

[finferflu]

There is actually a fix for this on the Gnome Bugzilla
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317081), but I don't know
how to use it.



This is the message in the mailing list:



> Fix for (possibly this) evolution related crash.

> 

> Not sure if this is the same crasher or not, but I suspect it may be.
> At least

> here, the crash was caused by contact entries with no family name, and
> the

> resulting strlen call on NULL. Patch adds a check to make sure
> family_name

> isn't NULL before doing anything with it.



and this is the patch:




Code:
--------------------
    diff -aur nautilus-sendto-0.4-orig/src/plugins/evolution.c nautilus-sendto-0.4/src/plugins/evolution.c

  -			if (strlen (family_name)==0){

  +			if (family_name != NULL && strlen (family_name)==0){

  				/* Output : name <email> */

  				str = g_string_new("");				

  				g_string_printf (str, "%s <%s>", given_name, email);

I have asked them how to use it, but they have told me to ask my
distribution to update the nautilus-sendto package.
