Update Vidalia

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
ChangeLog

0.2.16  24-Jan-2012
  o Make the default data directory in windows be located in the Local
    AppData instead of the Roaming one. Fixes bug 2319.
  o Do not launch Firefox with every CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED signal, do it
    only if Firefox isn't open yet. Fixes bug 2943.
  o Uses TAKEOWNERSHIP and __OwningControllerProcess to avoid leaving
    tor running in background if Vidalia exits unexpectedly. Fixes bug
    3463.
  o Attempt to remove port.conf file before using it to avoid a race
    condition between tor and Vidalia. Fixes bug 4048.
  o Do not allow users to check the "My ISP blocks..." checkbox
    without entering any bridges. Also updates the
    documentation. Fixes bug 4290.
  o Check that the authentication-cookie file length is exactly 32
    bytes long. Fixes bug 4304.
  o Explicitly disable ControlPort auto. Fixes bug 4379.
  o Make the non exit relay option backward compatible with Vidalia <
    0.2.14 so that it doesn't confuse users. Fixes bug 4642.
  o Sets the preferred size for the GUI layout so it doesn't squeeze
    widges when the size isn't big enough. Fixes bug 4656.
  o Removes the option to have only HTTPProxy since it does not work
    any more as it used to do with older tor versions. Users should
    use HTTP/HTTPSProxy instead. Fixes bug 4724.
  o Add a hidden configuration option called SkipVersionCheck so
    systems like Tails can force Vidalia to skip checking tor's
    version. Resolves ticket 4736.
  o When Tor has cached enough information it bootstraps faster than
    what takes Vidalia connect to it, so Vidalia does not see the
    event to update the progress bar. Now Vidalia explicitly asks for
    bootstrap-phase when it connects to Tor, and updates the progress
    to what is actually happening instead of hanging in
    "Authenticating to Tor". Fixes bug 4827.
  o Fix size hints in the main window layout so that tilling window
    managers display the window properly. Thanks to Mike Warren for
    the fix. Fixes bug 4907.
  o Provide a way to hide Dock or System Tray icons in OSX. Resolves
    ticket 2163.
  o Vidalia only validates IPv4 bridge lines. IPv6 bridges are now
    available, and there will be pluggable transport bridge lines. So
    the validation is now delegated to Tor through SETCONF.
  o Explicitly disable SocksPort auto by setting it to its default
    (9050). Fixes bug 4598.
  o Sets __ReloadTorrcOnSIGHUP to 0 if SAVECONF failed, which means
    the user can't write the torrc file. Fixes bug 4833.

Don't CC maintainers when you cannot assign bugs.
