#2052: SIGSEGV with certain idleaway prefs
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 Reporter:  ljbuesch                |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new                     |   Priority:  minor

 I have been getting SIGSEGV faults with Pidgen 2.0.2.  I tracked it down
 to the following changes in my prefs.xml file:

 {{{
 <pref name='savedstatus'>
 -                       <pref name='default' type='int'
 value='1183610226'/>
 -                       <pref name='startup' type='int'
 value='1183610226'/>
 +                       <pref name='default' type='int' value='0'/>
 +                       <pref name='startup' type='int' value='0'/>
                         <pref name='startup_current_status' type='bool'
 value='0'/>
 -                       <pref name='idleaway' type='int'
 value='1182719850'/>
 -                       <pref name='isidleaway' type='bool' value='1'/>
 +                       <pref name='idleaway' type='int' value='0'/>
 +                       <pref name='isidleaway' type='bool' value='0'/>
 </pref>
 }}}


 I compiled a debug version of 2.0.2 for which here is the backtrace:

 (and many more of these calls...)

 As far as how those settings were put into the file, I changed my settings
 from auto-away to never go away, because of problems I've been having on
 Linux with this feature.

 Please let me know if there is more information necessary.
