[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

This bug is still present in Ubuntu 13.10 (pidgin-libnotify version 0.14-9ubuntu2) Pidgin is so much better than Empathy it is unreal that Pidgin isn't the default IM. This libnotify issue is the ONLY issue I know of, so i'd love it is some Ubuntu dev just sorts it. (how hard can it be, when ther

[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

This makes pidgin practically unusable for me under Ubuntu 13.04. Before I could disable the libnotify plugin and use the systray icon, but now this is also not possible anymore. You have an important problem reported by multiple persons and a patch since 3 years! Anybody here? -- You received t

Over a year later, the bug still isn't fixed. If the patch works, what do we need to get it included upstream? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/589890 Title: can't close pidgin conversa

[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

I apologize if my experience is slightly off topic, but I was also unable to close tabs in Pidgin (Ubuntu 11.04 beta, Pidgin 2.7.11) - the tab would just re-open as the right-most tab. Further, when I closed the containing window, the tabs would alternately close and cause Pidgin to become nonrespo

[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

I hate to put in another one of these 'me too!' posts but I'm also facing this same issue every day with Pidgin. If Cameron's patch fixes this issue (and it seems that purple_conversation_present is somewhat broken, or just pidgin- libnotify's implementation?) then could the patch be applied to ma

[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

I agree with @hackel. I have taken to following this procedure when I get an IM now: Click on me-menu to see who the message is from Click on pidgin item in me-menu to open up buddy list Scroll down to buddy who sent message and double-click to open chat window. This way they're closeable, but i

I face this bug pretty much every day, and I use Pidgin constantly. Any way we can elevate the priority so that it can be resolved for Natty? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/589890 Titl

[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

Does a patch that uses purple_conversation_present(conv) and then pidgin_conv_window_switch_gtkconv(gtkconv->win, gtkconv) also work? purple_conversation_present just triggers the present ui_op but does so in a valid, safe, supported fashion rather than by poking internals directly. The switch_gtk

[Bug 589890] Re: can't close pidgin conversations when opened with messaging-menu

The problem with not using the timestamp is that it's required to defeat some of the focus-stealing-prevention that is in the window manager. I wonder if we could do present, and then bring the window forward again with the timestamp? ** Changed in: pidgin-libnotify (Ubuntu) Status: New =>
