openSUSE12.3 +pidgin+pidgin-sipe = Crash

openSUSE12.3 i586. Fresh install.


> rpm -qa | grep -i pidgin
pidgin-sipe-1.14.0-2.1.1.i586
pidgin-2.10.6-4.1.2.i586

Add new user account in to the Pidgin: Protocol: “Ofice Communcator”, SSL/TLS , NTLM.

I am normally connected to Microsoft Lync.
I receive the list of users (all as was on openSUSE12.2).
And right after this pidgin falls out…

Please, help me.

Any body have this problem ?

Opensuse 12.3

I have the same issue, I believe we’d have to report this via pidgin/sipe development. I had seen this in the past when the Lync
server was not reachable. In my case today, it is DNS resolvable, and reachable.

Manually updated SIPE and libpurple to 1.17.0. Received “failed to authenticate to server”.
(rpm --nodeps -Uvh <RPM file>

Per SIPE release notes, disabled SSO in the pidgin account, it now works.

Need to update the last comment, updated versions still crash, but work on an adjacent Ubuntu PC, same versions.

I recall seeing this when the Lync server wasn’t reachable, and now it seems this has started after a opensuse 12.3 update a few weeks ago.

so it’s not purely SW versions…
