qole: not yet. i'm scared of command line package manipulation.

also, i thought that if pidgin and pidgin bonjour support are both the same version and packaged by the same person, avahi should at least work for pidgin ... (my understanding was that you downgraded in order to make it work with the built-in client, right?)

so before i do apt-something, i'd rather be absolutely sure there's nothing wrong with my setup (=all the files in /etc/avahi, both on my desktop and on my n800). i thought i could check by installing pidgin on my laptop... if it doesn't work as expected between laptop and desktop, i'll know it's not a n800-only problem.

of course it would also be good to know if anyone got pidgin working with bonjour on their tablets without doing any additional magic on the command line.
