Sadly, another perfect example of doing the wrong thing by multiplying redundant efforts. Open source at its best. Anyhow, I'm undecided about continuing to maintain pidgin-otr which is unbearably buggy when there seems to be a technically better replacement for it (purple-otr). I need to ponder this a little. I'm gonna be offline for the next couple weeks, this might be the right time for me to evaluate the options ;-) I'll keep you posted. -- Thibaut VARENE http://www.parisc-linux.org/~varenet/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
