Bug Description

Pidgin 2.2.1.
Every time I restart pidgin i get the "blist.xml file cannot be loaded" message. I am using gadu-gadu protocol. my /home is on seperate disk.
This bug makes my pidgin forget all contacts on every shutdown.
If I leave my contacts list empty and then restart pidgin the bug does not occure.

i can confirm this on Ubuntu Gutsy with the same version

this repeats even after i've removed ~/.gaim ~/.purple and have purged pidgin pidgin-data libpurple0 and install pidgin and etc again
