An ERJ190 in icing conditions developed a bleed leak during climb out which resulted in the loss of pressurization and anti-icing capability; so the the flight diverted to a nearby airport.

Narrative:
During climb out with number two bleed MEL we were in icing conditions. ATC had our speed pulled back to 250 KTS. We got a bleed leak. Both packs shut off; the cabin altitude continued to climb to 10;000 ft. We started to run the bleed leak checklist; donned the oxygen masks; notified company and talked to the cabin crew. All other checklist was completed. We diverted. The plane should not have been dispatched with one bleed working. The plane had been in service for several days and the weather conditions called for icing at almost all flights. I believe the stress of extended time in icing conditions lead to the bleed leak condition.
