Pidgin 2.6.1 (libpurple 2.6.1) crashing

[jemrpo]

I'm on FreeBSD 8.0-BETA2, I've been using pidgin on this box since version 2.5.8, and had no problems with it, but from a few weeks ago I've been having crashes, with version 2.5.8, so yesterday I upgraded to 2.6.1, but I'm still having the same problem, I ran pidgin -d and this is that the output shows:

I reinstalled pidgin-msn-pecan and have no luck, any ideas?.

Any ideas?

portsnap fetch update
cd /usr/ports/www-im/pidgin
make install clean

 

[jemrpo]

ports are up to date.

Works here. Have you tried # portupgrade -fR pidgin\*?

I know this is old thread and we're using other versions of the OS and Pidgin, but the issues never change. I had troubles with sending messages with Pidgin, it crashed on send. Well, this is kind of a panacea: if you built from ports, try installing the package and visa versa. I deinstalled Pidgin and installed with pkg_add and now have no troubles with it.
