Thanks, I tried to contact nix_nix a lot for this update, never got a reply back though.
Do you think that this could work for harmattan aswell? (n950 users)

I don't have anything that runs Harmattan and I know nearly nothing about its internals, so I don't have the foggiest idea about how many adjustments it would need and I won't be able to support it.

Any chance of getting this bumped to the current 2.10.3 release?

Do you think that this could work for harmattan aswell? (n950 users)

nix_nix was an employee of Nokia when I last talked to him in October 2010. Could be he was on a burning platform and jumped into the sea. Glad to see somebody maintaining Pidgin.

As you might have noticed, Pidgin in the repositories was at version 2.7.7, while the upstream is already at 2.10.x. I felt like there were too many bugs not fixed and features missing, so I gave compiling it a try. Apparently, it went alright and the updated packages are in the repositories.
To accomplish this, I created a diff between vanilla 2.7.7 and nix_nix's 2.7.7 (current version in extras and extras-testing). Then applied it to vanilla 2.10.2 and fixed conflicts. This means credit goes to Pidgin's team and nix_nix. I also managed to fix some problems with the buddy list.
What's new? A lot, see the official changelog for details (http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/ChangeLog). The only Maemo-specific change is improved handling of the buddy list. The package is compiled with encryption for Gadu-Gadu (don't forget to enable it in the account settings).
Status area and notifications plugins from the repositories seem to work fine with this version.
Downloads: the newest version is available in extras-devel and an older one in extras-testing.
More plugins! If you think that there's some kind of functionality missing, there's a chance that the remedy is within a huge pack of plugins called Purple Plugin Pack (see http://www.guifications.org/projects...ginPackPlugins for a list) and now it's in the repositories too. There are so many plugins that I can't test them all on my own, so don't be surprised if some of them don't work. Please report such cases in this thread, so I can fix problems or exclude broken plugins from the package.
