Crash when certain contacts are added

Raaff commented 8 years ago

After updating to the latest whatsapp-purple, I had to delete several contacts because they were making pidgin crash. Today I pidgin crashed again. When I removed the contact that was last mentioned in the output of pidgin -d, pidgin worked again, but upon re-adding the contact with pidgin it crashed. The output when adding that contact was

similar issue (not sure if it is related to contacts), facing crash within 10-15 seconds on starting pidgin, after updating to 0.9

@Docbroke You could try renaming blist.xml (located in ~/.purple) to something else, to see if it's related to your contacts.

Docbroke commented 8 years ago

confirm, removing blist prevents crash hard-work of adding all contacts again, ahead

@Raaff, I added all contacts gradually to find out the one causing problem. I deleted old logs of that contact(which included ciphered msg) and re-added that contact, and now whatsapp is working without issue. eureka!!!

I confirm deleting the logs of that contact works, but now his messages are empty :(

Please build it doing "make debug" and run using gdb, otherwise that dump you just pasted is completely useless..

@Docbroke @Raaff
How did you deleted the logs ?
