 I've just upgraded pidgin to version Pidgin 2.4.2-1.fc9, using the yum
 update of Fedora 9.

 When I launch pidgin, from the menu, the application connects to the
 several servers (MSN, ICQ, YAHOO, JABBER) and after a few seconds it
 crashes without any information. The icon jut disappears from the taskbar.
 From the .xsession-errors I get the following:

 (gnome-terminal:3481): Vte-WARNING **: No handler for control sequence
 `device-control-string' defined.
 Pidgin 2.4.2-1.fc9 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
