Omer,

What dbusmenu version do you have now? I think that an update in the last couple of days should have fixed that. Could you check the version and make sure to restart xchat?

Thank you,
Ted

This affects not only Pidgin, but also a My-Weather-Indicator app that I downloaded.

I guess the My-Weather-Indicator app is creating empty GtkMenuItem's for separators, rather than using GtkSeparatorMenuItem ;)

---------------
libdbusmenu (0.4.1-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
    * Managed variant iterators better to stop crash when dealing
      with apps that have multiple shortcuts (LP: #741726)
    * Handled GtkMenuItems with no labels as separators (LP: #729187)
