Public bug reported: Ubuntu Raring Ringtail development branch pidgin 1:2.10.7-0ubuntu1
I upgraded from Quantal to the Raring development branch, and my IRC accounts on Pidgin are not connecting as usual. I went to the account window, and it seems that the protocol is unknown. In the account settings dialogue, the drop-down box allowing me to choose the protocol does not list IRC. I was not sure whether Pidgin still supported IRC (why wouldn't it?) so I checked the help files and the webpage but there was nothing indicated that support was dropped. ** Affects: pidgin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: irc ** Description changed: Ubuntu Raring Ringtail development branch pidgin 1:2.10.7-0ubuntu1 I upgraded from Quantal to the Raring development branch, and my IRC accounts on Pidgin are not connecting as usual.
