#5389: pidgin.2.4.1 crashes on CentOS 4.4 as soon as I "initiate chat".  1 to 1 IM
works fine
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  sconrad       |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new           |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  pidgin (gtk)  |    Version:  2.4.1 
 Keywords:                |    Pending:  0     
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Not sure pidgin-debuginfo is available for CentOS.  In any case, I
 couldn't find it.  I disabled plugins by renaming the ~/.purple/prefs.xml
 file, but that made no difference.  It worked fine in my previous version
 of pidgin.  I ignored the reminders for pidgin 2.2 and 2.3 upgrades, so it
 would have been the released version before that.
