Hi Robert,
The .purple directory holds everything about your account that you
would need. Since it's possible for Pidgin to load config from a
different folder with command line options, maybe double check what
folder is being used by Pidgin by first opening up the debug log
(Help->Debug Window) then opening the preferences screen
(Tools->Preferences), make a change to a setting then change it back,
then wait for the " util: Writing file prefs.xml to directory" message
to show up in the debug log.
I open the debug window and right away I see:
(17:21:10) *util:* Writing file prefs.xml to directory /home/rgm/.purple
(17:21:10) *util:* Writing file /home/rgm/.purple/prefs.xml
Cheers,
Eion

I have set up Pigdin on my Fedora30 system. Worked well for
participating in the IETF jabber rooms during our Virtual IETF107
meeting.
Now I have to migrate all the settings to my new Fedora32 system.
I have copied my ~/.purple directory from the old to new system.
But when I start Pigdin, it says no accounts set up. When I go into
Account Manager it shows no accounts.
But if I look at ~/.purple/accounts.xml, I see my account information.
How do I properly migrate my settings between systems?
thanks
