It would be really cool if the dev can add support for http_proxy because currently this only works if you are connected directly to the internet. They seem to be no way to get it to work with http proxies.

purple-protocol-sametime | libpurple0 (= 2.6.2-1maemo0) dependency looks strange at best and potential source for version problems.

Author has stated that purple-protocol-sametime is obsolete and libpurple0 (= 2.6.2-1maemo0) is not going to work because it conflicts with pidgin if it was installed first.

In my tests versions resolved OK with pidgin too, but I would recommend that depends line is changed for future versions for example to libpurple0 (>= 2.6.2-1maemo0) (+ extra libs if needed), because that's what current line effectively is.

For me, this is broken since libpurple0 and purple-extra-protocols are updated to version 2.6.4. It only works if you downgrade these packets to 2.6.3.

Thanks, Corwin

how to download it ??? i dont think i can download the deb file ?

anyone tested it with PR1.1 yet?

My favorite Maemo 3rd party app (or plugin) so far :D

Is there a way to make the plugin work with network proxy. since libpurple has very good proxy support perhaps proxy settings could be included in the account settings

Excellent app!

I have download the update and now works fine

The ICQ plugin prepends the user's ICQ account number instead of their nickname to outgoing messages in the conversation view (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25869).

This package is not designed to integrate with Pidgin. Pidgin is a third-party application in extras. This package is designed to integrate into the official Maemo 5 desktop. As a result, the Pidgin package will not acknowledge the presence of a chat in the "background".

I added to some contacts MSN accounts, but I can chat through conversations. If I press (in the contact profile) the MSN account, appear window of accounts supported by maemo (Skype, Gtalk and Jabber), but no reference to Pidgin that it's active in background.
