#52281: Port for evolution, based on devans evolution-data-server -------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: gwhitney | Owner: dbevans Type: submission | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: evolution | -------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by gwhitney): (side note: the authentication for trac has changed? I now only see a "github login", and when I clicked on that, it logged me in, but not using my gwhitney@macports.org email address, but rather a different address. Are the old trac accounts gone? Thanks for letting me know.) In using evolution compiled via MacPorts with an email account on which I have a backlog of 100K+ messages (really), I discovered a bug in evolution-data-server in which it uses alloca on an array the size of which is the number of threads in the folder. Needless to say, with 100k+ threads, that alloca blew away my stack. I attach the evolution-data- server Portfile change here and the associated patch file. I have already filed an upstream bug report with the patch on evolution-data-server, hopefully it can be incorporated into a release soon. In the meantime, I think it is worthwhile to patch it in MacPorts, as anyone using evolution could get into dangerous territory for their stack as a mailbox grows. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52281#comment:29> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
