i found out that it is related to the fact that i have guarddog installed and i have setup a very restrictive firewall. After executing "iptables -F ; iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT" , gaim started correctly (without segmentation fault) but without beeing able to connect to the IM Networks. Of course that worked after running "iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT". So i think the crash is realated to the rules created by guarddog.
** Summary changed: - gaim crash - core dump + gaim crash - core dump with enabled guarddog ** Description changed: Binary package hint: gaim i dont know if it can be reproduced on other systems , on my system each - time i start gaim it does a segmentation fault. + time i start gaim it does a segmentation fault if i have guarddog + enabled -- gaim crash - core dump with enabled guarddog https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119991 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
