Have you searched or inquired upstream for this bug? I highly doubt this is specific to Arch. In addition, you may want to try it again with the latest version of pidgin, 2.2.0, which has been in the repos for a bit.

Well, i tried with the arch linux and with the windows version (same version), and only the arch linux version crashed.

I'll search upstream.

It's fixed with the last pidgin version (2.2.0).
