#6305: Pidgin hangs up under Fedora 9
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  Fred            |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new             |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  pidgin (gtk)    |    Version:  2.4.3 
 Keywords:  hang up fedora  |    Pending:  0     
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Since the connection issue with ICQ ("old version") and the new Pidgin
 2.4.3 (in fact i use 2.4.3-1.fc9), Pidgin hangs up after a few minutes of
 operation. When I go online, the program works for around 3 minutes
 (differs, sometimes it hangs up immediately) and then completely locks up,
 using 100% CPU power and not responding to anything but kill. The
 protocols I connect to (ICQ, Yahoo!, MSN) don't seem to be related to the
 issue, since the problem persists even when using just 1 protocol.
 However, staying offline doesn't cause Pidgin to hang up.

 As I said, I use Pidgin 2.4.3-1.fc9 for i386 with Fedora Core 9 and up to
 Pidgin 2.4.2, everything worked just fine.
 Getting a backtrace doesn't work obviously, since the program doesn't
 really crash.

 Here are the last lines from an strace, maybe it helps:
