Package: pidgin
Version: 2.6.6-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Since the upload of gst-plugins-bad0.10 version 0.10.18-1, pidgin segfaults
upon startup. Message on the command line is:
$ pidgin
ERROR: Caught a segmentation fault while loading plugin file:
/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstlv2.so
Please either:
- remove it and restart.
- run with --gst-disable-segtrap and debug.
A workaround is to remove the file in question.
$ ln -sf /dev/null /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstlv2.so
Not sure if this is a problem with pidgin, or really with the new version of
gst-plugins-bad0.10.
