Description of problem: pidgin hangs if I click on a contact when the evolution plugin is enabled Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pidgin-2.4.3-1.fc9.i386 evolution-data-server-2.22.2-1.fc9.i386 How reproducible: right now 100% on my system, but it has not happened before - it is stated in other similar bug reports (see below), that the problem does not happen all times for all people... Steps to Reproduce: 1. use pidgin to login into ICQ network 2. turn on evolution plugin 3. click on available contact Actual results: pidgin just hangs and doesn't repaint its windows anymore Expected results: pidgin should not hang ;-) Additional info: There are already a bunch of other bug reports (in debian, pidgin bug tracking, and gnome bugzilla). If needed I can provide a backtrace, but it is nearly identical to the backtraces of the referenced bugs anyway. http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/973 http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/3820 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=523135 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=422807
Do you have a remote addressbook (eg. LDAP) configured in Evolution? is it currently unavailable when you experience this problem with Pidgin? This is probably a duplicate of bug 432815.

I've checked this, and indeed, the problem goes away when I turn off the LDAP addressbook (which does not really work ;-) ). On the other hand, the backtrace does not indicate an address book operation like gevo_load_addressbook, so I'm not sure whether it is a real duplicate...
