Bug Description
Binary package hint: gaim
I'm not super excited about reporting this bug, but maybe it can be retargetted and resummarized if there's something useful in these apport files.
Basically what happened was that I left my machine in the morning with gaim on and came back at night. When I attempted to access gaim, I was able to read some of the messages that had collected during the day but at some point, gaim locked up. All the windows repainted with the flat gray color that indicates the program's GTK main loop is hung. Hoping there was something I could do besides killall gaim, I did a "sudo invoke-rc.d dbus restart". It was during the dbus restart process that gaim crashed and produced this report.
If this is useless, feel free to close, and I apologize for wasting malone resources. Next time it happens, I'll try to attach to the process via gdb and get a better stack trace.

Thanks for your bug report. The crash looks like a memory corruption. Could you try to get a valgrind log for it? (you can follow the instructions from https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Valgrind for that)
