Buddy list messed up
Hi, I have two pidgin installations - work (2.5, openSuSE) and home (2.6, Ubuntu). My jabber contact list is just few contacts but ICQ contact list is really large. So, I've decided to do some renaming/regrouping while used 2.5. When I came to 2.6 I noticed that much of my ICQ contacts was messed: numbers-nicknames relation was totally broken. I've tried to fix it, but in 2.5 things got worse. Deleted contacts was still there, numbers-nicknames were broken again. I'm here to ask for help. 1. I do not want Pidgin to store nicknames in blist.xml (at least for ICQ); 2. Is there a tool (not in Pidgin maybe) to fix my ICQ contact list. I searched python ICQ backend to write a script, but no success. -- regards, Mikhail ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?

Pidgin and graceful synching of Google Profile pictures
I've noticed that loading Pidgin with a Google Profile account seems to reset the avatar there. This seems like possibly a design/spec issue, but I wanted to flag it in case anyone was not aware. 1. Set an avatar in google profiles via the website. 2. Use pidgin. 3. Return to google profiles website to find avatar deleted. Expected: Maybe Pidgin should not always push images, it might want to pull an avatar sometimes. Not 100% what the best policy is here, maybe current behavior is lesser of two evils, but I'd be interested in any thoughts folks have on this. Thanks for letting me crash this support mailing list!

Upgrade to Pidgin 2.6.4, which preserves the avatar on the server (if one is not set locally) once again.

Forgot to send to the list, first time.
