Could you please generate an apport crash report for this? A crash report will help in resolving your problem. You can enable apport for one instance like this in the terminal: sudo service apport start force_start=1
I am marking this invalid as apport will open a new bug when the crash is generated. Please include any relevant information from this report in the new bug report. If you cannot generate a crash report, you can reset the status of this one to new and we will try something else. Feel free to subscribe me to the new bug report so I can assist you further. ** Changed in: pidgin (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- pidgin crash when add new account https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601900 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
