Description

Somehow the latest BZR release (20060409) crashes after an user got disconnected and reconnected.

After some debugging with gdb and wilmer's help i patched bitlbee.c and the bitlbee didn't crash anymore. But i am still not sure, what caused this crash in the first place.

After the server with the patch applied never crashed (i did this some days ago) i reverted to the BZR release and it crashed again unde similar circumstances.

I'm still trying to figure out what went wrong, but i'm a newbie, when it comes to debugging... i've much to learn.

18:42:20     wilmer| WereBones: http://bugs.bitlbee.org/bitlbee/ticket/134 what happened to that one btw?
18:42:28     wilmer| WereBones: you still use that patch?
18:43:06  WereBones| No, currently i am using your jabber-branch
18:43:24     wilmer| WereBones: and no crashes so far, right?
18:43:39     wilmer| WereBones: so maybe/hopefully this problem got resolved so the patch isn't necessary 
                     anymore
18:43:45  WereBones| Yep, no crashes so far.
18:43:46     wilmer| (or maybe the patch is in there already, actually i'm not sure
18:43:53  WereBones| maybe :)
18:44:05  WereBones| close the ticket, if you want to ;)

I guess I'll close it soon. Both WB and I are running BitlBee in daemon mode inside valgrind now and things are behaving pretty well. :-)
