As far as I can remember, the Pidgin synchronisation plugin is extremely simple, and the entries will have to match exactly (between Pidgin and the Contacts). If they do not, then the plugin will re-add them. If you have it running periodically... it may get worse. I think this was a bit changed on 2.22, so indeed it would be good to test there.
Right now I would disable this plugin. -- evolution-data-server keeps replicating my contacts in addressbook.db when syncing with Pidgin https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution-data-server in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
