Kopete crashing when connecting to MSN - only on KDE 3.5.8

[UrbanSlayer]

As above, whenever I launch Kopete after updating to KDE 3.5.8 today on both my desktop (an upgrade from Feisty) and laptop (clean install of Gutsy about 3 days ago, updated tonight) if I allow it to connect to MSN, it crashes with the following -

The application Kopete crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV).

Details of the Backtrace follow -

This only happens when connecting to MSN, if I dont connect to MSN it works fine. Also, until I upgraded my laptop tonight to KDE 3.5.8 from 3.5.7 that Gutsy had initially installed, all was ok. Now, it doesnt matter which version of Kopete I use.

Ive searched, but I cant find a bug on this, has anyone else had this problem? If not, I'll raise a new bug report (but under what, Kopete or KDE?).

Cheers.

[KLineD]

I can confirm this bug. It happens only with the latest update. I have another machine running gutsy without today's updates and kopete runs fine.

[k_f]

Confirmed. Same thing happens to me too after upgrade to 3.5.8.

[High Roller]

Confirmed here as well. Bug is open at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kopete/+bug/149263

**edit: I'm wondering if there's an updated Kopete package that has been withheld or "in the pipes" and the updated KDE is incompatible with the older Kopete. But this close to release it makes me leary.

[ramibotros]

confirmed .. will go confirm it on the bugs page

[XenThraL]

Confirmed here as well

phew, thought _I_ had screwed something up somehow

[jakster]

Confirmed, crashes only with MSN. Doesn't matter if I remove kopeterc or the kopete directory in ~/.kde/share/apps

[crozar]

i confirm on this

the last gutsy update on early 17th of October have made this protocol mess

[diJenerate]

Get the fix here (http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041).

It is an i386 package... Im running amd64. Id much rather have a 64 bit package.

[Mr. Dude]

The .deb did nothing =(

[hypnoticmorpheus]

64bit deb did the trick for me. Is this new deb also in the final version?
And I am wondering why it did not come in through the repos. Have not seen an update today.

[Mr. Dude]

For some unknown reason, gDebi didn't install it properly, yet it said it had. I decided to install it from the command line (had been a while) and it worked perfectly =]
