I am having trouble finding the thread that had the reciepients that you requested to respond to. Please use the GMail.com Reply All feature. Read this: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6585?hl=en Ask for Skype, what ever is currently on here is not being used, (nor does it work) and was installed via the package software manager. OK, pidgin still tries to load it and it may cause your trouble. Please remove the appropriate packages using the package manager. Search for skype and remove all the necessary packages. Again, I am a novice at this so please bare with me. Thank you You're welcome.

Anyway, it's strange that it doesn't ask for the debug packages - and you shouldn't run the gdb commands from within itself. Furthermore, are you using a third-party plugin for Skype? That may not be supported due to the proprietary nature of Skype.

I have removed it and reinstalled. Everytime I start the program the chat box loads up (as in the boarder) And then it crashes. Everytime. I am not sure what to do to resolve this. I am a newbie when it comes to linux so not sure how to submit a crash log if thats what you need. thank you. To submit a crash report run from the command line «gdb /usr/bin/pidgin» and type «r» (for run). After the crash you'll be prompted to install many debug packages with a command, so run it to install them. Then run «gdb /usr/bin/pidgin» again, type «r» and wait for the crash and then type: «thread apply all bt full» and press enter a few times and send us the contents of the output. Also see: https://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/TipsForBugReports Some other things to try: 1. Does the crash happen with pidgin in a new UNIX user account? 2. Does it happen on a minimalistic WM such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JWM ? 3. Does it happen in a new user in a minimalistic WM?
