Pidgin hangs on start here and the window is not responding. But I can cancel it with Ctrl+C. The problem occurs after I experiented a bit with the Purple interface. But my experimental tool (which sets the status msg all 20 seconds to something) works good for hours until Pidgin didn't respond even more. Then I killed it and now it doesn't start correctly (it hangs / doesn't respond).

It works again after a system-restart. (I don't restart very often, so I don't checked this before). But I have tested a DBus-restart, this had not helped. So I have no real explanation for this behavior. I had much hangs in Pidgin before (all the time, mostly after starting a new chat), but it always works after a restart of Pidgin. So I thought this isn't related with this report. But perhaps it is though. Nevertheless, I will fill another bugreport for this issue, because it always comes from time to time. (Other friends of mine also reports this issue.)
Can you try pidgin 2.0.1 ? Maybe you can also attach gdb to it when it hangs and see where it is.
Exactly the same behavior in 2.0.1. It occurs again right now (and I think it will work again after a restart of Gnome?/DBus?/Xorg?/Linux?). ...

The problem seems to be with EDS-bonobo.. Not much we can do about it, hopefully when eds-dbus is integrated into the standard evo, it will fix the problem.
