Subject: gaim does not start (autoconnection/yahoo)
Package: gaim
Version: 1:1.2.1-1.1
Severity: grave
Hello,
I have just found out that gaim does not start.
I could not confirm this with other users, sorry for the severity, but
I thought that if it were a real RC, then it should be checked before
sarge release.
When ran from xterm it displays:
$ gaim
QUIT :Download Gaim: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/
Illegal instruction
Note: the quit comes from cancelling an IRC connection.
If ran under strace it opens and fails at some point.
gdb backtrace:
