Title:
  3x [pidgin] <defunct> found when running pidgin but runs normal

Status in “pidgin” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello.

  Just checked today the Processes with "ps x" and found  that Pidgin
  seems to have some issues which do not affect the usage of Pidgin in
  any way.

   3205 ?        Sl     0:00 pidgin
   3215 ?        Z      0:00 [pidgin] <defunct>
   3217 ?        Z      0:00 [pidgin] <defunct>
   3219 ?        Z      0:00 [pidgin] <defunct>

  Also searched in /var/log for errors, but can't find any. 
  I asked in the ircchannel #ubuntu+1 if anyone can confirm that behaviour and it seems I'm not alone. 

  If you need anything else, please let me know.

  
  Kind regards

  JD
