Sentry Crash Report:

Description Chris Flora 2009-07-08 16:36:19 UTC
Application that crashed: kopete
Version of the application: 0.70.90
KDE Version: 4.2.95 (KDE 4.2.95 (KDE 4.3 RC1))
Qt Version: 4.5.2
Operating System: Linux 2.6.31-2-generic i686
Distribution: Ubuntu karmic (development branch)

What I was doing when the application crashed:
Uninstalling the facebook plugin allows kopete to start.  

I tried purging kopete & reinstalling; but as long as the facebook plugin was also installed, kopete crashed exactly as shown.  uninstalling the facebook plugin allowed kopete to start & operate without problems.

Indeed, this is the same as bug 198675. The cause of the crash is the facebook plugin which seems to be rather unstable. The workaround is uninstalling it.
Thanks
