Yeah, I gave strace another shot and this time I got what I needed:
4513 getppid() = 1
4513 readlink("/proc/1/exe", 0xbf824ddc, 512) = -1 EACCES (Permission
denied)
A grep after getppid in the sources of pidgin showed me the line of
interest ;-)
Thanks Michal and Stephen for your suggestions.
cheers,
Stefan
