pidgin 2.1 has bugs

Here is the output I got after upgrading and starting pidgin

[shantanu@bluehead ~]$ pidgin
Pidgin has segfaulted and attempted to dump a core file.
This is a bug in the software and has happened through
no fault of your own.

If you can reproduce the crash, please notify the developers
by reporting a bug at:
http://developer.pidgin.im/simpleticket/

Please make sure to specify what you were doing at the time
and post the backtrace from the core file.  If you do not know
how to get the backtrace, please read the instructions at
http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/GetABacktrace

If you need further assistance, please IM either SeanEgn or 
LSchiere (via AIM).  Contact information for Sean and Luke 
on other protocols is at

Make a bug report, with a backtrace.


Use the Source, Luke!

Re: pidgin 2.1 has bugs

no problem here


Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: pidgin 2.1 has bugs

I just don't get the purpose of this. We have a bugtracker for such stuff! Moreover, even the App itself tells you what to do in that case. What, in the good heavens, were you thinking when you put this post up? Not much, I'd say...


Todays mistakes are tomorrows catastrophes.

Just to tell those who are facing same prob that they are not alone having this issue. smile

Also, at http://developer.pidgin.im/simpleticket, one needs to get registered before placing a bug report which not everyone likes to do.

That's a crap excuse. There's free disposable emails all over the internet, and you can use whatever name you want to sign up... so not registering is a pathetic way out.

Dumping it here and expecting someone else to do the dirty work is sheer laziness.

Re: pidgin 2.1 has bugs

There seems to be a problem with Pidgin + musictracker. If musictracker is turned on, Pidgin hangs/freezes and crashes.

Can anyone confirm this?

Re: pidgin 2.1 has bugs

I've had problems with it as well, but I checked, someone already added in mine.  My biggest gripe about it is that the away messages sometimes goto blank when you have something in there that it doesn't like, however after the last update, everyone magically is not only signed on normal, but also through mobile too lol.
