gwibber version is: 2.29.90.1-0ubuntu1

I can reproduce the crash. It happens then I click on "Broadcast Accounts..." on the gnome panel...

Confirmed in 2.29.90.1-0ubuntu2 when launched from the Me menu ("Broascast accounts") in Ubuntu 10.04.

The crash no longer happens under the same configuration since I rebooted the system after applying the updates. Rebooting, indeed, was required for the Me menu update to come in effect.

This appears to happen when gnome-keyring-daemon doesn't start up correctly. In my case, I am using krb5 authentication, and the pam-gnome-keyring module doesn't startup the daemon properly. This might be a major problem for enterprise users. In my case, it also impacts Ubuntu One and Empathy, as they both store secrets in the keyring as well.

I'm using a fully patched (as of the moment) Lucid.
