Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pidgin
Pidgin reports some MSN/Live buddies as online as soon as the program starts
while they are off-line. This is probably something to do with the mobile
functions in MSN. as though the capability to send messages to a mobile device
(which can be turned off) means they are online.
Messages send to such buddies are not received, nor is an error generated when
trying to do so, or is asked to get some credit to send to mobile.
Also buddy-pounces on 'sign on' are triggered as soon as Pidgin starts.
This is clearly a bug in Pidgin, as aMSN is reporting those contacts
off-line (but with mobile)
This with Pidgin 2.5.1 on Intrepid beta with current updates (as of
10-13-2008).
It has been happening for some weeks now, so I guess it is something
since alpha 6 or earlier.
** Affects: pidgin (Ubuntu)
