Bitlbee crashing

Hi. Not sure I should report a bug right away or try the forums first... Bitlbee is crashing for me since my last update. it is now at 3.4-1. I can connect regularly, and sometimes it even works for a while, but eventually it crashes and prints on IRC the message `ERROR BitlBee crashed! (SIGSEGV received)`. Any hints? How could I debug that, are there logs that might be written somewhere?

Re: Bitlbee crashing

You can check the systemd journal for logs ('journalctl -u bitlbee'). You can also try backing up your /var/lib/bitlbee directory, deleting it and then starting bitlbee to see if it works. I've been running 3.4-1 the last few days with no issues.

Re: Bitlbee crashing

It is just crashing without any clues. Maybe it is because of the kind of experimental facebook plugin?... This is the output from my log case it might help someone.
