Public bug reported: Pidgin 2.6.6: "Available - Waiting for network connection" although '~$ route' indicates that my computer is connected to the network. In this situation I can start Pidgin using the procedure Alt+F2 > 'pidgin -f' though. I expect that I can start Pidgin by running the command '~$ pidgin' if '~$ route' shows that my computer is connected to the network. I expect that Pidgin does not print the misleading status message: "Waiting for network connection."
