package: pidgin version: 2.2.0-1 Sometimes pidgin can not connect to gtalk server, using XMPP protocol with errors either "Read Error" or "SSL Handshake failed". Find below output of strace pidgin --debug >log 2>&1
There are following bugs in pidgin BTS and ubuntu, not sure whether these are related: http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/3005 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/117501 I suspect that the bug is triggered only when there is certain contact with certain properties (image size, type, note, etc) online. I still have not managed to corellate pidgin unabilitity to connect with contacts currently online. Stay tuned on this.
