Status in “indicator-applet” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “pidgin” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: indicator-applet The indicator-applet cannot bring pidgin to the front sometimes when another program is focused. I have created a capture video to explain it. First you see that the applet can bring up pidgin fine. But when I open a new tab in opera and then click the applet the contact list of pidgin is not opened in the foreground. But you can see it appear in the bar at the bottom.
