Package: empathy
Version: 2.30.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,

i'm running squeeze and used empathy for IM (jabber mostly). Several
weeks ago after upgrading my system, empathy do not run anymore.
Since then, I have maintained my system up to date with squeeze
packages, and tried to purge all empathy and telepathy packages to
reinstall them: no way! I still can't use empathy as it crashes when
launching it.

The 'empathy-accounts' command works so I have removed all my
IM accounts but I still have the problem.

I have tried to run empathy with gdb and here is the trace

I hope this information can help and this bug could be resolved.

Thanks
