Everytime I receive a URL in Gaim it crashes. Here's gdb output:

I can confirm this on my 10.4 system. I did a clean install of darwinports, immediately ran a selfupdate, then installed gaim. I also tried with a fresh ~/.gaim directory and the problem persists.

I am also seeing this with 1.0.2 of cairo, but with another application (Freeciv 2.0.7) that uses cairo.

[markd@…]

Is this still a problem with cairo v 1.0.4?

[hyclak@…]

[hyclak@pbook hyclak]$ port installed | egrep "gaim|cairo"

cairo @1.0.2_0 (active) gaim @1.5.0_0+msn (active)

As of now, I do not have this problem anymore.

Thanks! Closing per Matt's comments.
