Pidgin randomly changes my friendly name on the msn protocol to a name in my contact list. the name change is only visible locally. if i had my friendly name set to "somename" then after a while the name is changed to "somecontactsname", but it is however only visible in my chat dialogue like so: timestamp "somename": hello how are you? timestamp "contact": fine, and u? ......... timestamp "somecontactsname": ya im good. timestamp "somecontactsname": crap it happened again... timestamp "contact": what happened? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.launch pidgin 2.3.0 2.let it run for a couple of minutes 3.Accounts->msn account->set friendly name. Actual Results: will have another contacts friendly name set. Expected Results: dont have my own friendly name set. i believe it happened after a upgrade of pidgin or the pidgin library.
This is a known and fixed upstream bug... see http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/4062 it will be in 2.3.1
