Hi there! I use the Debugging Version of Pidgin 2.5.3 on WinXP. Everytime I start Pidgin it immediately crasehs without an error message. The Icon appears in the task bar, however it vanishes as I hover over it with the mouse (I think that's a Win issue that the icon doesn't dissapear immediately after the progress dies.)
The help webpage indicates to search for an pidgin.rpt File, but this doesn't even get created. I however used the comandline option for the creation of a log file, and here is its content: > ------------------------------------------------- > Pidgin Debug Log For 29.12.2008 19:58:48,88 > ------------------------------------------------- > Loaded exchndl.dll > GTK+ path found: C:\Programme\GTK2-Runtime\bin > Using SetDllDirectory > Setting locale: LANG=de > Looking for Perl...
