Pidgin 2.7.1
Hace 3 días, Pidgin liberó una nueva versión (2.7.1) de su popular software de mensajería instantánea.
Recién en el día de ayer han sido subidos los paquetes de esta versión a su PPA.
La lista de cambios es la siguiente:
- General
- Build fixes on OpenSolaris. (Brian Lu)
- Add configure option –enable-trayicon-compat which installs tray icons into directories that are compatible with older versions of hicolor-icon-theme (0.9).
- Pidgin
- Restore the tray icon’s blinking functionality.
- Fix a crash setting moods when an account is disconnected.
- Bonjour
- Fix a crash on disconnect.
- ICQ
- Fix bug that caused HTML to be displayed in incoming messages.
- MSN
- Fix unnecessary bandwidth consumption for buddy icon requests when buddies have capital letters in their passport addresses.
- Support for direct connections, enabling faster file transfers, smiley and buddy icon loading. (Gábor Szuromi)
- XMPP
- Allow connecting to servers that advertise EXTERNAL (broken in 2.7.0)
- MXit
- Replace the MXit-specific mood management with the new standard Moods API.
- Add the standard MXit emoticons.
- Improve the handling of users being kicked from MultiMX rooms.
- MXit doesn’t allow you to see your buddy’s Email Address or Title, so remove those two fields from the “Buddy Information” page.
- Show buddy’s Registration Country in their profile.
- Increment protocol version to v6.0
- If an invite you sent was rejected with a reason, display that message in the buddy tooltip.
- CAPTCHA value is a required field during account activation. (Resolves issue on Maemo)
- When your avatar image is changed, don’t forget the user’s profile information.
- Windows-Specific Changes

Para mi gusto estaria mejor que Emesene lo hicieran multiprotocolo
Si lo hicieran multiprotocolo dejaría de llamarse Emesene
Jeje buen punto…
Gracias por la informacion, pondre ese repositorio, ya que a mi me molestaba no poder mirar los gifs.
Tienes razon Flopy pero de que la interfaz grafica de emesene esta mejor lograda que en Pidgin o Emphaty realmente lo esta
