[solved]Emesene suddenly makes X restart all the time

All of a sudden, emesene makes X restarts all the time. I can start the application with no problem. Logging in isn't a problem either but when I click on a contact or click on a menu like File, X restarts and I have to log back in. It happens with emesene from community, with abs and the latest svn version. When I run it from the console, all I see is a warning about the usage of a deprecated md5 module. Any idea how to resolve this issue?

edit: Additionaly I found this in /var/log/daemon.log

gdm-binary[1071]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X-error - :0 restarted

After trying out everything there is to try, I decided to simply remove  ~/.config/emesene  which solved the problem. Odd, but you won't see me complaining

For those interested, it was the rgba colors option in emesene that caused the crashes.
