Package: pidgin
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: normal
The default proxy configuration setting for XMPP is to use the GNOME
proxy settings. In my GNOME configuration I have configured a manual
HTTP proxy but I have not checked the 'Use the same proxy for all
protocols' checkbox. This configuration results in pidgin attempting to
tunnel XMPP accounts through this HTTP proxy.
My expectation would be that unless I check the 'Use same proxy for all
protocols' option in the GNOME configuration XMPP would not use the HTTP
proxy configured by GNOME given a simple 'Use GNOME configuration'
selection.

I wouldn't really consider this a bug, since Pidgin will only use the
HTTP proxy from the GNOME settings and none of the others.
