[edgy] Gaim crashes when I click on save icon

From the discussion on the Red Hat bug we decided that this bug should
probably be fixed in either dbus (preferably) or gnome-vfs. But until
that happens, it's pretty easy to patch Gaim to avoid the crash. We've
posted a patch for v2_0_0beta3 as well as a patch against the v2_0_0
branch of SVN
What version of Gaim is in Edgy? If it's SVN from the past week or two
then this bug has probably been fixed. It looks like it's related to
when we enabled threads to work around some problems when using d-bus
and also the newer, thread-using version of gnome-vfs. But we have
removed the thread
Er, well Gaim 2.0.0 beta 3.1 is basically just 2.0.0 beta 3 + some
critical patches. If you were previously using something from a recent
SVN then it might still be a good idea to verify that the bug is fixed
in a build of SVN from the past day or two.

There IS a lot of oscar stuff in those backtraces... but since Gaim

I don't believe that's possible. There's not a single call to rmdir()
