This would be a good issue to take upstream to bugs.kde.org. That's where kopete's developers will more likely be able to be able to comment on this.
Please let us know when/if upstream kde is informed, and we'll continue to track the issue there.

Thanks, we'll continue tracking the issue upstream.
the latest source from kopete.kde.org, which is 0.12.2, compared to fedora's (I think 0.12.7), builds and runs fine.
So, newer versions regressed here? joy.
i've downloaded and installed the latest kopete from the old stable kde branch (0.12) and the latest r5u870 module (version 0.11.0 http://wiki.mediati.org/R5u870#Download ) and it works fine, no crashes whatsoevery. Hence, it's a fedora-specific problem.
