pidgin just segfault without any actions from me, so it probably related to incoming message or some internal issue. pidgin compiled with USE=debug, as http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/GetABacktrace recommend, but backtrace still contain ?? instead of function names. I'll try to recompile pidgin using 'CFLAGS="-O2 -ggdb" FEATURES="splitdebug" emerge pidgin' recommended in bug 186256. looks like issue related to oscar protocol, and here is last messages from pidgin stderr output about oscar (NOTE: I've translated Gtk error message from russian to english, so it may look non-standard): (06:47:24) oscar: Scheduling destruction of FLAP connection of type 0x0018 (06:47:24) oscar: Destroying oscar connection of type 0x0018.

Ok, I've compiled piding using recommended: USE="debug" CFLAGS="-O2 -ggdb" FEATURES="splitdebug" emerge pidgin and after several hours it crashes again, but stack trace is still doesn't contain function names. Here is a log (I've removed records non-related to ICQ&AIM protocols): (05:59:52) idle: Setting 105083775 unidle (05:59:52) idle: Setting powermanASDF unidle ...

Please try 2.2.2
Same for me. 2.2.1, 2.2.2, as well as any previous version I tried crashes on Yahoo login. I recall previous version displayed notification window like "you have to use new version with video (or voice) chat..." and crashed after that. 2.2.1 does not display it. Version shipped with Ubuntu works with my account just fine. Output with -d: (14:27:33) yahoo: 668 bytes to read, rxlen is 688 (14:27:33) yahoo: Yahoo Service: 0x55 Status: 0 (14:27:33) yahoo: Ignoring unrecognized cookie 'C' (14:27:33) util: requested to fetch (http://address.yahoo.com/yab/us?v=XM&prog=ymsgr&.intl=us&diffs=1&t=0&tags=short&rt=0&prog-ver=8.1.0.249&useutf8=1&legenc=codepage-1252), full=0, user_agent=((null)), http11=1 (14:27:34) yahoo: No Aliases to process (14:27:34) yahoo: 282 bytes to read, rxlen is 500 (14:27:34) yahoo: Yahoo Service: 0xf1 Status: 0 Pidgin has segfaulted and attempted to dump a core file. This is a bug in the software and has happened through no fault of your own. If you can reproduce the crash, please notify the developers by reporting a bug at: http://developer.pidgin.im/simpleticket/
Created attachment 134522 [details, diff] patch from ubuntu Can you try the patch I've just attached.. To do so: Add the file into the pidgin/files and then add the following lines to the ebuild: src_unpack() { unpack ${A} cd ${S} epatch ${FILESDIR}/pidgin-2.2.1-yahoo-icon-crash.diff }
I just got an idea about this bug. I think problem is in non-UTF8 encoding: I'm using ru_RU.KOI8-R. If I'll reconnect my ADSL after starting pidgin, and receive different dynamic IP, pidgin lost connection to server. But pidgin notice this only after 20 minutes timeout (at least - for OSCAR). Then it try to reconnect, output this and crash: (19:21:06) oscar: Scheduling destruction of FLAP connection of type 0x0002 (19:21:06) oscar: Destroying oscar connection of type 0x0002. Disconnect reason is 4 [Invalid UTF-8] (19:21:06) oscar: Disconnected. Code is 0x0000 and msg is \xf7\xd2\xc5\xcd\xd1 \xcf\xd6\xc9\xc4\xc1\xce\xc9\xd1 \xd3\xcf\xc5\xc4\xc9\xce\xc5\xce\xc9\xd1 \xc9\xd3\xd4\xc5\xcb\xcc\xcf Hi, user. We need to talk. I think something's gone wrong here. It's probably my fault. No, really, it's not you... it's me... no no no, I think we get along well it's just that.... well, I want to see other people. I... what?!? NO! I haven't been cheating on you!! How many times do you want me to tell you?! And for the last time, it's just a rash! Аварийный останов This bugreport in Pidgin's trac probably related to my issue: http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/2247 Looks like it fixed in 2.3.0 while I'm using now 2.2.2. P.S. I'll try to start pigdin with "LANG= pidgin" and see what happens after 20 minutes...
Yeah, it works! After 20 minutes I got in logs: (20:11:48) oscar: Scheduling destruction of FLAP connection of type 0x0002 (20:11:48) oscar: Destroying oscar connection of type 0x0002. Disconnect reason is 4 (20:11:48) oscar: Disconnected. Code is 0x0000 and msg is Connection timed out Pidgin doesn't crash. But it also doesn't reconnect. Instead, it show notification messagebox to me, saying (protocol ICQ): [MY UIN HERE] disconnected Lost connection with server: Connection reset by peer After clicking 'Connect' button it show same messagebox after short delay. But after repeating this several times it finally connected to server, so maybe this was some issue with ICQ server or network.
I guess this is fixed by 2.3.x
