Comment 1 Igor Jagec 2006-11-23 23:10:37 UTC
The same problem here. I even tried to run older versions of Gaim, but the 
result is the same :-/

Here's the output:

$ gaim
libnm_glib_nm_state_cb: dbus returned an error.
  (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown) The name 
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files
Gaim 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 gaim
developers by reporting a bug at
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/bug.php

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://gaim.sourceforge.net/gdb.php

If you need further assistance, please IM either SeanEgn or 
LSchiere (via AIM).  Contact information for Sean and Luke 
on other protocols is at
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/contactinfo.php


Comment 2 Alberto Planas 2006-11-24 07:46:27 UTC
Workarround: Download gaim source code from http://gaim.sourceforge.net/
(2.0.0beta5 works). Uncompress the source code package and write:

./configure --prefix=${HOME}/bin/gaim
make && make install

cd ${HOME}/bin/gaim/bin
./gaim &



Comment 3 Warren Togami 2006-11-26 22:20:12 UTC
Alberto, this bug is reported against gaim-2.0.0 beta5 as packaged in Fedora. 
There is apparently some bug when it is compiled with dbus support.  Your
comment is not helpful.

Comment 4 Warren Togami 2006-11-27 18:05:57 UTC
Testers indicate that the dbus message happens in the terminal when gaim is run
with NetworkManager disabled or removed.  However, there is no crash.

http://gaim.sourceforge.net/gdb.php
Your crash is likely unrelated to the dbus message.  Please install matching
debuginfo and follow the gdb procedure, then attach the results to this report.

Created attachment 142269 [details]
gdb output

That's an gdb output which I got following the instructions on
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/gdb.php

And yes, I have NetworkManager removed.
