Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pidgin

pidgin 2.5.5 (XMPP/IRC /ICQ/MSN)
evolution 2.26.1 (gmail imap/smtp + contacts + calender)

Adding a new buddy
clicking on "neue Person" (= new buddy) in the uploaded screenshot let the 
window just dissapear.

disabeling the evolution integrating plugin brings me back to normal.

quote from IRC--
The plugin is part of Pidgin, but the failing is in calls to 
evolution-data-services API, so I don't know what we can do
Because the issue is that the connectors to evolution aren't working properly, 
and that may be something misconfigured with your distribution's install (it 
may not, too. but I don't know.)
