[Bug 130852] Re: [gutsy] Pidgin 2.1.0 crashes on the freshly updated libc6
Found the root cause: I was sharing the .purple configuration directory between two Ubuntu installations (symlink between homes), Feisty and Gutsy. When I recreated the Pidgin configuration from scratch in Gutsy, the crashes stopped reproducing. In more detail, I found that the accounts.xml file from the Feisty installation (also Pidgin 2.1.0) would trigger the crash. -- [gutsy] Pidgin 2.1.0 crashes on the freshly updated libc6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

No, running Pidgin under valgrind does not crash. I use this as a workaround to be able to use Pidgin (albeit quite slow) :). -- [gutsy] Pidgin 2.1.0 crashes on the freshly updated libc6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

reassigning to glib2.0, g_free is called before. please investigate if that call is valid. we had a glib2.0 update these days as well. ** Changed in: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: glibc = glib2.0 -- [gutsy] Pidgin 2.1.0 crashes on the freshly updated libc6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for glib2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thanks for your bug report. Could you try to get a valgrind log for the crash (you can follow the instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind)? ** Changed in: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: New = Incomplete -- [gutsy] Pidgin 2.1.0 crashes on the freshly updated libc6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
