Title:
  pidgin crashed with SIGSEGV in start_thread() on login to Ubuntu

Status in pidgin package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I logged into Ubuntu desktop this morning after shutting down the
  machine overnight.  When it had logged in a message about Pidgin
  having experienced a problem was on the screen.  The timestamp on
  /var/crash/_usr_bin_pidgin.1000.crash suggests this did happen while
  logging into the Unity desktop this morning.

  Recent changes including switch to the Skype plugin (instead of the
  Skype (D-Bus) one) and setting Skype as a startup application inside
  the Startup Applications application.  Skype started but did not login
  as I had not saved my password into it.
