Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

I discovered the problem during a non stable Wifi connection. The network
tends to be down during 30 seconds or 1 minute then bbe up

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Sometimes, using weechat to connect to bitbeee on a local network, bitlbee crashes

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The main problem is that the crash.log file is more than 4GB. I dont know
how to send it, perhaps via the people./debian.org machine?

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Dear Maintainer,

I could anticipate the crash and, thus, generate a better file to track
it (156
MB instead of several GB).
You will find it at https://people.debian.org/~jpmengual/crash.log

This file increases strongly until filling all the partition if I dont
kill -s 9 the process.

regards
