---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Reporter: adamw | Type: defect
Status: new | Priority: minor
Component: pidgin (gtk) | Version: 2.2.1
Keywords: TGA BuddyIcon | Pending: 0
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Steps to reproduce (not reduced)
Build pidgin 2.2.1 from source on Ubuntu 7.04 Fiesty
with the following configure options: ./configure -enable-dbus -enable-nm
Add an account for MSN, Yahoo, AIM, and ICQ
Set the buddy icon for the MSN account to the default postcard.
Leave all others as default (no icon)
In main "Buddy List" window, click on the default postcard.
Select a tga file with the following specs
8510 bytes
image/x-tga
filename adz_block_face_blueA.tga
256x256 pixels, RGB
created by GIMP 2.2
Result:
Pidgin has segfaulted and attempted to dump a core file.
This is a bug in the software and has happened through
no fault of your own.
If you can reproduce the crash, please notify the developers
by reporting a bug at:
http://developer.pidgin.im/simpleticket/
Please make sure to specify what you were doing at the time
and post the backtrace from the core file. If you do not know
how to get the backtrace, please read the instructions at
http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/GetABacktrace
If you need further assistance, please IM either SeanEgn or
LSchiere (via AIM). Contact information for Sean and Luke
on other protocols is at

Aborted (core dumped)
Expected behavior:
If Pidgin does not like TGA files, it should fail more gracefully.
