Package: pidgin
Version: 2.10.0-1+b1

Since I got the 2.10.0 upgrade, Pidgin started not to be usable at all
(although Finch remained usable). The program launches successfully,
but several seconds later, it just freezes hard - kill -9 is required
to make its ghost go away.

The freeze occurs even if all accounts are disabled, around 15 seconds
after startup. Running 'strace pidgin' gives me this last message:

pipe2([9, 14], O_CLOEXEC)               = 0
clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD, 
child_tidptr=0x7febf10fec30) = 20677
close(14)                               = 0
fcntl(9, F_SETFD, 0)                    = 0
fstat(9, {st_mode=S_IFIFO|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 
0x7febf0f3f000
read(9, 

Disabling the MusicTracker plugin brought my Pidgin back to
life. Strange thing, MusicTracker _does_ work under Finch.
