Comment:

 What Daniel actually wanted you to do was run pidgin and make it hang,
 then attach gdb to that already-hung process from a new terminal.  That's
 not so clearly described in the GetABacktrace page.

 Run Pidgin and get it to hang.  Then open a new terminal and run `ps aux |
 grep pidgin` and see what PID pidgin has (second column of output).  Then
 run `gdb pidgin $PID` (where `$PID` is the actual PID you got from the ps
 command above).  Once that connects, you should be able to do `bt full`
 and get a useful backtrace.
