Assuming you're talking about ldap unix accounts and not about ldap im accounts.
This seems to be caused by the pidgin-otr plugin.
Both the pidgin program and the plugin are compiled against libcrypt, and (I 
read) this causes a problem.
simply by mv-ing /usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so to pidgin-otr.so.bak, you can at 
least use pidgin as your current user while still using LDAP.
I myself am not a developer and have only somewhat mediocre knowledge about 
this stuff, but this fixed the problem for me.
I only hope the next update I receive on pidging has a fix or workaround for 
this.
