There was an automatic update for pidgin this morning, did not help. I've tried starting older kernels; same problem in old 2.6.24. I've tried deleting the /home/<username>/.pidgin folder, did not help.
This is very frustrating, this is the second time the automatic updates breaks something in my system (fourth if including distribution updates) since I started using Ubuntu... :-( -- pidgin crashed with SIGSEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
