Package: pidgin
Version: 2.0.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #440926
I contacted you a few days ago regarding a crash in Pidgin that I could
not get a backtrace from. I ran
ulimit -c unlimited
pidgin -d
and then recieved a core file that unfortunately doesn't have any
symbols in it. The following where the last entries before the crash in
the -d output:
First time:
(16:38:15) album: Caching icon for buddy:

I also managed to run gdb; here is the output:

If you could help me give you a backtrace, that would be great!
