Package: pidgin
Version: 2.7.1-1
Severity: normal
Currently on my computer (sid, gnome desktop) the pidgin main window with the
buddies cannot be resized to a width below 1274 points (don't ask me
why?). It is started as pidgin without any other command line arguments:

norbert 7143 0.0 0.0 20068 2100 pts/1 Ss 14:22 0:00 /bin/bash
norbert 7170 0.9 0.6 259228 27796 pts/1 S+ 14:22 0:02
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/reportbug pidgin
That is a bit annoying.
Thanks and all the best
Norbert
