[Bug 480378] [NEW] empathy hangs on import from pidgin

[Reuben Thomas]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Running empathy again (2.28.1.1-0ubuntu1), it offers me to import from
Pidgin, so I try, but it just hangs, opening no window and installing no
icon on the taskbar. I obtained the following backtrace:

(gdb) where

If I kill it and start it again, it doesn't even open the import dialog,
but just hangs as above.
