Description John Paul Adrian Glaubitz 2010-05-14 11:34:37 UTC 
abrt 1.1.0 detected a crash.

architecture: i686
Attached file: backtrace
cmdline: pidgin
comment: Trying to test the new features of retrieving the X-Status of an ICQ user in my buddy list. Obviously Pidgin seems to crash when the buddy does not use a client which supports X-Status. Could not properly test yet what happens when a buddy uses the official client but I don't remember any crashes when testing it.
component: pidgin
crash_function: raise
executable: /usr/bin/pidgin
global_uuid: 0913e1a6ddb1e417fd0fa9686a8f77a378e02f3b
kernel: 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i686
package: pidgin-2.7.0-1.fc13
rating: 4
reason: Process /usr/bin/pidgin was killed by signal 6 (SIGABRT)
release: Fedora release 13 (Goddard)

How to reproduce
-----
1. Start Pidgin (>= 2.7.0) and add one ICQ account
2. Right-click any buddy not using the official client (e.g. Pidgin) and choose "Get X-Status Msg"
3. Pidgin will crash and produce this backtrace
4. Also reproducible with Pidgin 2.7.0 (upstream) for Windows

Comment 2 John Paul Adrian Glaubitz 2010-05-14 12:05:03 UTC 
I did some more testing. Pidgin does not crash when the buddy is using the official client. It does, however, also occur when the buddy is using Adium on MacOS X.
