Bug 189876 – pidgin-2.1.0 always shows away state

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Péter Werner 2007-08-22 20:19:03 UTC]

When I change it to active it changes to away after the timeout even if I keep working (not in pidgin) and it never becomes active.

Yes, you need the xscreensaver use flag... Maybe I should remove that use flag and just always enable it in the gtk+ frontend

Thanks!

> Maybe I should remove that use flag and just always enable it in the gtk+ frontend

Sure.
A better description for xscreensaver use flag would already improve it.
I would still say it is a bug even if it's a feature ;-)
(Set to FIXED when you removed xscreensaver or INVALID if you think it's good as it is.)

[Comment 4 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) 2007-08-23 03:51:11 UTC]

Alright, I just realized that we did not provide a non-X GTK+. So there is really no point in separating startup-notification and xscreensaver extension support from the gtk use flag.. so I've removed them from pidgin-2.1.1 .. 2.1.0 is already stable on some architectures.
