#15205: Pidgin crashes when Clutter cannot initialize due to broken GLX

 My GLX was broken.  This caused Clutter to fail.  Pidgin could perhaps
 handle this more gracefully than crashing with a segmentation fault.

 {{{
 (Pidgin:11989): Clutter-CRITICAL **: Unable to initialize Clutter: Unable
 to find suitable fbconfig for the GLX context: Failed to find any
 compatible fbconfigs
 Pidgin 2.10.2 has segfaulted and attempted to dump a core file.
 }}}

 I now fixed my GLX and Pidgin doesn't crash any more.
