Comment (by nosnilmot):

 gaim 1.5.0 doesn't remember last used folders, so would not crash, those
 prefs are only there because you at some point used a 2.0.0 beta.

 If you edit prefs.xml while pidgin is not running and set the path to
 something, eg:
 {{{
 <pref name='filelocations'>
         <pref name='last_save_folder' type='path' value='/'/>
         <pref name='last_open_folder' type='path' value='/'/>
         <pref name='last_icon_folder' type='path' value='/'/>
 </pref>
 }}}
 does that avoid the crash?
