Comment (by deryni):

 I can't quite make sense of the crash yet but the fact that you can't
 select any account types probably means you have multiple (incompatible)
 versions of libpurple installed on your machine. Run 'pidgin -d' and see
 what it says when it tries to load the protocol plugins. Then, if you
 built pidgin yourself, remove the distribution packages or if you want to
 use the distribution packages remove the version you compiled yourself and
 try again.
