Comment 2 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-12-20 12:45:27 UTC
Please provide the following information:
1. emerge --info pidgin
2. Is this bug reproducible with 2.6.4?
3. output of the following command:
qfile -Cqv /usr/lib/pidgin/

Also try the following:

1. Try to uninstall plugins mentioned in the above output (not disable but emerge -C) If you manage to find broken plugin, please, report.
2. Rebuild net-im/pidgin media-libs/gstreamer dev-libs/glib and in case ?? remain in the output sys-libs/glibc and may be others with debugging symbols, as written here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml (basically add splitdebug to features, currently -ggdb does nothing since portage strips all debugging information -ggdb provided, and thus backtrace in attachment is incomplete).
Comment 3 Willard Dawson 2009-12-21 05:01:08 UTC
After mucking about with it for a while, I found the eventual answer:

rebuild media-libs/gstreamer

The crash persisted even through 2.6.4-r1 until I did that.
