Thanks for your bug. Could you get a backtrace with gdb and gaim-dbg installed? Does it happen when closing gaim or when closing your session?

You don't happen to be using the Galago plugin, do you?

This error happens with me, too.
I'm not using galago plugin. (I don't know what it is :)

Another information:

If my contact list is open and i close gaim by right clicking on status icon and choose "close" option, the contact list window remains opened. After a while, apport appears...

This error happens when i close gaim.

I'm using 2.0.0+beta3.1-1ubuntu6 on edgy.

Hi!

It's incredible, but now it don't crash anymore!
I've enabled a lot of plugins, disabled them, but gaim closes normally!!

I have not seen any update recently related to gaim, but every day i upgrade my edgy with a lot of updates...

Do you have any idea what happened?

Hi!

Checking with more deep, i've seen that although closing normally, gaim generates a core file (about 25MB) in my home dir.

So, doing some tests i think i found the problem. It's related to libnotify plugin, that i've installed from http://repository.debuntu.org/

Disabling this plugin, gaim closes normally and no core file is created.

Kevin Kubasik, initial reporter of this bug, do you use this plugin too?
