Description Philipp Bielefeldt 2023-09-03 13:35:57 UTC
Created attachment 869223 [details]
screenshot of the empty frame in Evolution (sender/recipient/… are blurred, since this is not a test setup)

I am on Leap 15.5, Gnome; yesterday, I ran an update via zypper up, and as far as I can see, several GTK-related packages were changed, including webkit2gtk-4_1-injected-bundles, typelib-1_0-WebKit2-4_1, libwebkit2gtk-1_0-37, webkit2gtk-4_0-injected-bundles, typelib-1_0-WebKit2-4_0, WebKitGTK-4.0-lang (all now on v2.40.5), typelib-1_0-Gtk-4_0, gtk4-lang (v4.6.9).

Since then, Evolution no longer displays mails. Instead, only an empty frame is drawn where I would normally see the mail's content (see attached screenshot). To the best of my knowledge, this is done using WebKitGtk, hence I assume the update is responsible here.

It might have something to do with https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1214669 – at least, when I opened YaST to see my package history, I got a comparable error message.
