I assume you applied the patch from #6904?  Try running Pidgin with
G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals in gdb.  This will allow you to get a
backtrace at the assert() failure:

G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals gdb pidgin

I believe that is just a flag which indicates whether or not purple
was found.  I have had those problems when I compiled Pidgin but did
not "make install" it.  That is actually how I discovered and fixed
the asserts in #6904.
