[Gaim-devel] Gaim 1.5 crashes with status.xml from 2.0.0cvs

[Bjoern V. <bj...@cs...>]

Hello!

Currently I'm using Gaim 1.5.0 (normal usage) and 2.0.0cvs (mainly for
testing my translations).=20

But since some time, I have to use separate .gaim/status.xml files for
each Gaim-branch.=20

Gaim 2.0.0cvs can convert the status.xml from 1.5.0. But 1.5.0 crashes
with the status.xml file from 2.0.0cvs.

Could this be fixed without touching Gaim 1.5? If it's not possible to
use a compatible format for status.xml, I suggest another filename for
the status.xml file in Gaim 2.0.

Here is the backtrace from Gaim 1.5 (current oldstatus):
