Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pidgin
Running pidgin 2.5.5-1ubuntu8.1 (on Jaunty 9.04). I reinstalled my system a couple of weeks ago. I have been using pidgin for a few weeks since then. With startup today it failed to start. (well it starts, and crashes with SIGSEGV after showing the window a second). When i disable yahoo first (by disabling network first, i have the chance to disable yahoo), there is no problem. So this definitely is a yahoo problem. This can also be seen in the backtrace. Running inside gdb showed me the following: (no debugging symbols found) Core was generated by `pidgin'.
