This is still a pretty giant problem for me. If you select a new
message entry in the indicator applet, the launcher entry just wiggles,
demanding attention instead of foregrounding the window. Pidgin isn't
the only app to do this, Thunderbird does as well. It all used to work
in 12.04 as well,
Bug still persistent in saucy. 5 years!
Can't we just remove the crappy indicator patches from pidgin? They are
horribly broken.

Thanks a lot for reporting this, however since Pidgin is not a part of
the default installation, nor is it a 'Featured Application' in the
Software Centre, this cannot be considered as a paper cut.

This bug is fixed in the papercut sense -- interesting, Matthew.
However, I do not want to count this as a paper cut as the issue was not
addressed and Pidgin is not in the default Ubuntu install. Many Ubuntu
users will be upgrading to Karmic and they will still experience the
issue so I don't
I don't know whether this bug is fixed for Pidgin, but it should not be
marked fixed on the grounds that it is fixed for Empathy. Whether it is
fixed for Empathy is bug 442389, not this bug. And we want Pidgin to
integrate properly with the messaging menu, regardless of Empathy's
status.

Sorry, Lionel, I misunderstood your comment. This bug is fixed in the
papercut sense, even if not in Pidgin itself, because Pidgin is no
longer the default IM program. So bug 442389 might be the new papercut.

It does work with Empathy which is now the new default. The papercut is
then fixed.

Curiously, when you click on the Indicator Applet icon and select
Pidgin, the buddy list appears just BEHIND the window having the focus.
Try to following:
1. Open Firefox, full maximized.
2. Open a Terminal.
3. Click on Indicator Applet - Pidgin.
Result: the buddy list is displayed BEHIND the
I can confirm this strange behavior. For example:
0. Start without buddy list (close the buddy list if it's opened).
1. Open a terminal (Applications-Accesories-Terminal).
2. Click on Indicator Applet icon and then select Pidgin.
Expected behavior: The buddy list is displayed IN FRONT OF the
Indicator applet has nothing to do with this. It just sends a DBus
signal to pidgin-libnotify, which just calls the purple function to
present the buddy list.

This looks like bug 354026 that I filed with a patch. The current
pidgin-libnotify toggles show for the buddy list, which generally
doesn't focus the window the first time you select it in the message
indicator. I have a patch that set visibility to true so it always
presents it, noted in that

When I start pidgin from gnome-panel icon it does not get to foreground.

It is odd that this issue disappears when I run pidgin from terminal or with
Ctrl+F2-pidgin.
But it appears again when I run pidgin from Gnome menu or the icon on the gnome
panel.
