I see.. btw, IMHO, that's a real pity :(

Yeah, that doesn't sound like a good reason not to update the port. If a new version of software is released, the port should be updated to that version (assuming it compiles on our supported platforms and such). If there's a need for keeping the older version around, then I agree with the previous poster who said a new port should then be created (by copying the older version of the pidgin port).


I think this change has actually caused the pidgin project to fork, so there's probably an alternate port that could be created from the forked code that doesn't have the resizing input text area.
