pidgin crashed as i was chatting with someone on yahoo. there seems to be other problems using pidgin on yahoo too like the main chat window freezing and not allowing posts at times.

Thank you, it would be great if someone else could confirm this.

Sadly I am still experiencing this bug, with an up-to-date Hardy system.

Is this still an issue for you? Could you also try with version 2.4.3 from hardy-backports?

[Luke12 (luca-venturini)]

I have not experienced this bug in a long time now - wheter with 2.43 or
2.5 which I have installed some days ago through getdeb. Fixed as far as
I know :-)
