Talking with deryni in #pidgin on freenode, he indicated the root of the issue: /etc/purple/prefs.xml
The file there is the default prefs, and it's faulty. It needs to be fixed. Here is the pidgin-developer approved patch. This should replace that file. Note that docklet.so was an old plugin for the tray icon; it has been deprecated and should not appear in the prefs.xml at all. I have included a patched pidgin-data.deb. The only file changed is the /etc/purple/prefs.xml. The real question is: who else has this bad prefs, and why don't all Gusty users have it? ** Attachment added: "Patched prefs.xml; removed deprecated plugin, changed XML item type" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9497740/pidgin-data_2.2.0-1ubuntu1_all.deb -- Pidgin 2.2.0 Forgets Plugin Selections (Ubuntu Gusty x86 Tribe 5) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144122 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
