Starting yesterday (10/01/04) afternoon, connection to the oscar network with gaim causes it to segfault. Here's the backtrace from the core file: (gdb) bt #0 0x406a2511 in kill () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x4003a591 in pthread_kill () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 #2 0x4003a96b in raise () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 #3 0x406a2138 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 #4 0x406a38c0 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #5 0x080fd177 in sighandler () #6 0x4003e011 in __pthread_sighandler () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 #7 <signal handler called> #8 0x40038232 in pthread_mutex_lock () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 #9 0x406dddaa in free () from /lib/libc.so.6 #10 0x41a15a81 in operator delete () from /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.2/libstdc++.so.6 #11 0x41918421 in Arts::readTypeSeq<Arts::InterfaceDef> () from /usr/kde/3.3/lib/libmcop.so.1 #12 0x0832bd88 in ?? () When trying to connect to the oscar network through icq2go, I get the following error: "Error 830.7.155 Communication disconnected. Try to login again." Also, trying to connect to oscar with gaim, I sometimes in a row got this error message, which, I think is related to the one from icq2go: "You have been connecting and disconnecting too frequently. Wait ten Minutes and try again. If you continue to try, you will need to wait longer" I waited about 3 hours the last time but it still wouldn't work after that. -->Segfault. The error message is not appearing again. I also attached gaim -d's output as a plain/text file So I remerged gaim a few times, remerged glibc... and now gaim loads successfully, but upon sending an IM, gaim crashes again. The backtrace is still the same. I then emerged kopete then to see if it possibly was a network related issue but had to find out that kopete works well. Please let me know if there's anything else you need.

Created attachment 40914 [details] gaim -d output
Gaim guys told me it would have something to do with arts. I am however not using arts. My sound settings are set to 'Automatic' and my /etc/libao.conf contains 'default_driver=alsa'. I recompiled libao with USE="-arts and -esd", now it works again.
sorry for the inconvenience!
