I am also experiencing this bug. I guess I understand Pidgin's point, if the user wants the behaviour of Pidgin stealing the focus, then you gotta work around bugs in other components of the system to do it.
I, on the other hand, and apparently a slew of others, DO NOT WANT THIS BEHAVIOUR, nor do we want the additional annoying behaviour required for a feature we don't want. As another mentioned above, the old behaviour of Pidgin appearing pulsing on the taskbar was fine. I never let IMs pop up into my workflow, but merely let the Pidgin icon change to let me know I have an unread IM. So having an additional "window" that doesn't exist appear on every workspace is annoying AND useless. At least let us choose the old behaviour via a preference. -- Buddy List taskbar icon shows on all virtual desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346840 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
